Insert the slider portion into the slot of the
filter slider for dia illumination.
The slider portion has stoppers that define the
limit position of the sliding movement. Insert the
slider portion into the slot by pressing the
stoppers upward.
Two slider portions can be inserted (four filters in
all) into the filter slider for dia illumination.
Although the slider portions can be inserted from
both sides, be sure to insert one from each side
to prevent the knobs from being on the same
side. Inserting the slider portions from the same
side will cause a knob conflict disabling the
sliding movement.

7.8.5 Attaching a Motorized Dia-Illumination Shutter (Optional)
The NI-SH-E motorized shutter can be attached through the NI-SHADI motorized dia-Illumination shutter
adapter only when a precentered lamphouse is used.
Handling of the motorized shutter
The shutter vanes are very thin and fragile. If the shutter vanes deform as a result of accidental contact, the
shutter might malfunction or fail to achieve desired performance.
Take due care not to touch the shutter vanes when handling the motorized shutter.
Mounting and removing the motorized shutter
Motorized shutters must be mounted by Nikon personnel. If the motorized shutter needs to be mounted or
removed, contact your local Nikon representative.
