Instructions
a Safety Precautions
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for
help.
a Safety Precautions
●
Do not look at the sun or a bright light source
through the lens or camera. Doing so could result in
loss of vision. Looking at the sun directly through the
lens is especially hazardous.
This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003.
●
Whether it is attached to the camera or not, do not
leave the lens under the sun without the lens cap
attached. This is to prevent the lens from concentrating
the sun’s rays, which could cause a fire.
Conventions used in this instruction
Warning to prevent lens or camera malfunction
or damage.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is
subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not
cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any
interference received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation.
Supplementary notes on using the lens and
taking pictures.
Do not make any changes or modifications to the equipment
unless otherwise specified in the instructions. If such changes r
modifications should be made, you could be required to stop
operation of the equipment.
Attaching the strap
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits
for a class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment
generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in
a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful
interference to radio or television reception, which can be
determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of
the following measures:
Thread the end of the strap through the strap mount on
the lens and then back through the clasp on the strap.
Pull the strap tight and check that there is no slack in
the clasp.

ENG-3
1. Mounting and Detaching the Lens
See your camera’s instructions for details on
mounting and detaching the lens.
The lens mount has a rubber ring for enhanced
dust- and water-resistance. The rubber ring may
cause slight abrasions around the camera’s lens
mount, but this will not cause any problems. If the
rubber ring becomes worn, it is replaceable by a
Canon Service Center at cost.
● After detaching the lens, place the lens with the
rear end up to prevent the lens surface and
contacts from getting scratched.
● If the contacts get soiled, scratched, or have
fingerprints on them, corrosion or faulty
connections can result. The camera and lens
may not operate properly.
● If the contacts get soiled or have fingerprints on
them, clean them with a soft cloth.
● If you remove the lens, cover it with the dust
cap. To attach it properly, align the lens mount
index and the ꢀ index of the dust cap as shown
in the diagram, and turn clockwise. To remove it,
reverse the order.

Switching the Focusing Distance Range
AF Stop Button
If you use AF from outside the specified focusing
distance range, the lens may stop focusing when it
reaches the limit of the range. This is not a
malfunction. If this occurs, press the shutter button
halfway down again.
The AF stop function also works in AI Servo AF
mode.
● With the EOS 630/600, RT, A2/A2E/5, or 10S/10
set to the AI Servo AF mode and continuous
shooting, AF will not resume even after you let
go of the AF stop button. Press the shutter
release button halfway to resume AF.
● With the EOS A2/A2E/5 and 10S/10 set to the
Sports mode, AF will not resume even after you
let go of the AF stop button. Press the shutter
release button halfway to resume AF.
4. AF Stop Button
● You can change the functions of the AF stop
button using the camera’s Custom Function. For
details, please refer to the camera’s instructions.
During autofocus operation, you can press the
AF stop button to temporarily pause autofocus.
If the shutter button is still pressed halfway
when the AF stop button is released,
autofocusing will continue as before.

5. Focus Preset
By presetting any focusing distance, you can instantly focus at that point even while you are

● When panning subjects in motion.
● In semi-darkened areas such as indoors or

● In locations where flash photography is
prohibited, such as art museums and theater
stages.
● In situations where your footing is uncertain.
● In situations where fast shutter settings
cannot be used.
ENG-10
Tips on Using the Image Stabilizer
● When you use a tripod, the Image Stabilizer
should be turned off to save battery power.
● The stabilizer is equally effective for hand-held
photography and photography with a monopod.
● The Image Stabilizer also operates when the
lens is used with extension tube EF12 II or EF25
II or the extender EF1.4× II.
● The Image Stabilizer also operates when the
EF300mm f/2.8L IS USM or EF400mm f/2.8L IS
USM is used with the extender EF2× II.
● The Image Stabilizer cannot compensate for a
blurred shot caused by a subject that moved.
● Set the STABILIZER switch to OFF when you
are taking pictures using the Bulb setting (long
exposures). If the STABILIZER switch is set to
ON, the image stabilizer function may introduce
errors.
● The Image Stabilizer might not be fully effective
in the following cases:
• You shoot from a violently moving vehicle.
• You move the camera dramatically for a
panning shot in Mode 1.
• You shoot using techniques other than
following shots in Mode 2.
● The Image Stabilizer consumes more power
than normal shooting, so fewer shots can be
taken if you use the function.
● The image stabilizer operates for about two
seconds even when your finger is off the shutter
button. Do not remove the lens while the
stabilizer is in operation. This will cause a
malfunction.
● With the EOS-1V/HS, 3, ELAN 7E/ELAN
7/30/33, ELAN 7NE/ELAN 7N/30V/33V, ELAN

point that results from changes in temperature.
The nfinity position at normal temperature is the

For accurate focusing in MF on subjects at infinity
distance, look through the viewfinder while rotating
the focusing ring.
● Depending on the camera there may be image
shake, such as after releasing the shutter.
However, this does not affect shooting.
● If you set the camera’s Custom Function to

the area between the depth-of-field scale lines
below the distance scale. The numbers on the

The depth-of-field scale is an approximate indicator.
