22 Precautions on close-distance scale (For DA 16-45mm f/4ED AL, DA 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 AL WR, DA L 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 AL) In the close-distance scale range (minimum focus distance range), when shooting at the maximum aperture, image quality in this range, we recommend that you use a smaller aperture, stopping down from full aperture. When taking a picture in the corners of the picture may deteriorate because of the optical characteristics of the lens.
