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.  
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.  
This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003.

1. Mounting and  
2. Setting the Focus  
Mode  
Detaching the Lens  
See your camera’s instructions for details on  
mounting and detaching the lens.  
To soot in autofocus (AF) mode, set the focus  
ode switch to AF.  
To shoot in manual focus (MF) mode, set the  
focus mode switch to MF, and focus by turning  
the focusing ring. The focusing ring always  
works, regardless of the focus mode.  
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.  
After autofocusing in ONE SHOT AF mode, focus  
manually by pressing the shutter button halfway  
and turning the focusing ring. (Full-time manual  
focus)  
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.  
ENG-4  
 
3. Switching the Focusing  
Distance Range  
You can set the focusing distance range to 1.8  
m/5.9 ft. to infinity or 6.5 m/21.3 ft. to infinity. By  
setting the suitable focusing distance range, th
actual autofocusing time will be shorter.  
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.  
ENG-5  
 
4. Adjusting Zooming Resistance  
Move the zoom ring forward or backward to  
zoom.  
You can adjust the zoom ring “touch”  
(resistance) as needed by holding the focusing  
ring n place and turning the zoom touch  
djustment ring.  
Be sure to finish zooming before focusing.  
Changing the zoom ring after focusing can affec
the focus.  
To prevent unintended extension of the front of  
the lens, be careful not to set the zoom ring too  
loose.  
Turn the zoom touch adjustment ring towards the  
word SMOOTH to reduce the zooming touch, or  
towards TIGHT to increase it. To lock the zoom  
ring in place, turn the zoom touch adjustment ring  
towards TIGHT until it stops.

In semi-darkened areas such as indoors or outdoors  
at night.  
When panning subjects in motion.  
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-8  
 
Tips on Using the Image Stabilizer  
The stabilizer is equally effective for hand-held  
photography and photography with a monopod.  
The image stabilizer function also operates when  
the lens is used with an extension tube EF12 II or  
EF25 II.  
The Image Stabilizer cannot compensate for a  
blurred shot caused by a subject that moved.  
Set the STABILIZER switch to OFF when using the  
camera on a tripod. If the switch is set to ON, the  
Image Stabilizer may introduce errors.  
When using extender EF1.4× II/EF2× II, you can  
use the Image Stabilizer with the following cameras:  
EOS-1Ds Mark III, EOS-1Ds Mark II, EOS-1Ds,  
EOS-1D Mark III, EOS-1D Mark II N, EOS-1D Mark  
II, EOS-1D, EOS 40D, 30D, 20D, 20Da, 10D, 5D,

Ti/300V, REBEL T2/300X, REBEL K2/3000V, IX, IX  
Lite/IX7  
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 change  
the assigned button to operate the AF, the Image  
Stabilizer will operate when you press the newly  
assigned AF button.  
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 followng  
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 II/ELAN II  
E/50/50E, REBEL 2000/300, IX, IX Lite/IX7, and  
D30, the Image Stabilizer will not work during self-  
timer operation.

The infrared index corrects the focus setting  
when using monochrome infrared film.  
Focus on the subject in MF, then adjust the  
distance setting by moving the focusing ring to  
the orresponding infrared index mark.  
he intermediate marker between 200 and 135  
is 150 mm.

Distance index  
To compensate for shifting of the infinity focus  
point that results from changes in temperature.  
The infinity position at normal temperature is the  
point at which the vertical line of the L mark is  
aligned with the distance indicator on the  
distance scale.  
Some EOS cameras cannot use infrared film. See  
the instructions for your EOS camera.  
For accurate focusing in MF on subjects at infinity  
distance, look through the viewfinder while rotating  
the focusing ring.  
The infrared index position is based on a  
wavelength of 800 nm.  
The compensation amount differs depending on  
the focal length. Use the indicated focal length  
as a guide when setting the compensation  
amount.  
Be sure to observe the manufacturer’s  
instructions when using infrared film.  
Use a red filter also when you take the picture.  
ENG-10  
 
9. Using the Tripod Mount  
Adjusting the Tripod Mount  
By loosening the orientation locking knob on the tripod mount you can rotate the camera to set the  
image for any vertical or horizontal position.  
Detaching the Tripod Mount  
First remove the lens from the camera and then remove the tripod mount from the lens as shown  
below. To attach the tripod mount, reverse the procedure.  
Loosen the orientation  
locking knob.  
Align the red mark on the  
tripod mount with the lens  
mount index.  
Slide off the tripod collar  
away from the rear of the  
lens.  
ENG-11  
 
10. Hood  
11. Filters  
(Sold Separately)  
You can attach filters to the filter mounting  
thread on the front of the lens.  
Use a polarizing Canon filter (77mm).  
To adjust the polarizing filter, first remove the  
lens hood.  
The ET-83C hood can keep unwanted light out  
of the lens, and also protects the lens from rain,  
snow, and dust. Fit the hood to the hood mount,  
then turn it in the direction of the arrow to attach  
it securely. The hood can be reverse-mounted  
on the lens for storage.  
Part of the picture may be blocked if the hood is  
not attached properly.  
When attaching or detaching the hood, grasp  
the base of the hood to turn it. To prevent  
deformation, do not grasp the rim of the hood to  
turn it.
