7. Solució De Problemes

7.1 Problemes de qualitat d'imatge

• Chromatic Aberration: In high-contrast areas, especially at wide angles, some color fringing may occur. For JPEG images, in-camera lens correction can often mitigate this. For RAW files, post-processing software like Adobe Lightroom can be used to correct chromatic aberration.
• Light Fall-off (Vignetting): Darkening at the corners of the image may be noticeable, particularly at wider apertures and focal lengths. In-camera lens correction for JPEGs or post-processing for RAW files can correct this.
• Distorsió: Wide-angle shots may exhibit some barrel distortion. In-camera lens correction (for JPEGs) or lens profiles in post-processing software (for RAW) can correct this.

7.2 Lens Not Zooming

Ensure the lens lock switch is in the unlocked position. The lock is designed to prevent the lens from extending unintentionally during transport.

7.3 Autofocus Problems

• Check that the lens is set to AF (Autofocus) mode, not MF (Manual Focus).
• Assegureu-vos que hi hagi prou llum i contrast al subjecte perquè el sistema d'enfocament automàtic funcioni correctament.
• Clean the lens contacts on both the lens and camera body.
