Handling Cautions
Safety Precautions
●● If the lens is taken from a cold environment into a
warm one, condensation may develop on the lens
surface and internal parts. To prevent condensation
in this case, first put the lens into an airtight plastic bag
before taking it from a cold to warm environment. Then
take out the lens after it has warmed gradually. Do the
same when taking the lens from a warm environment
into a cold one.
●● 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 espechazardous.
●● Whether it is ached to the camera or not, do not
leave tns der the sun without the lens cap
atached. o prevent the lens from concentrating
n’s rays, ch could cause a fire.
●● Do not leave the lens in excessive heat such as in a car
in direct sunlight. High temperatures can cause the
lens to malfunction.

CAN ICES-3 (B) / NMB-3 (B)
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,
can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not ins
used in accordance with the instructions, may ca
interference to radio communications
However, there is no guarantee thnterfeence w
occur in a particular installation. If s equipment do
cause harmful interference to raditelevision recepti
which can be determined by turning e equipmoff and
on, the user is encouraged to try to cect the irference
by one or more of the following measur
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and
receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different

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 beomes worn, it is replaceable by a
Canon ServicCenter at cost.
●●After detaching the lens, place the lens with
the rear end up to prevent the lens surfa
contacts from getting scratched.
●●If the contacts get soiled, scratched, or
fingerprints on them, corrosaulty
connections can result. Tcamera and l
may not operate properly.
●●If the contacts get soiled oave fingerints on
them, clean them with a sofoth.
●●If you remove the lens, cover ih tdust
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.

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 when you take the picture.

Image Stabilizer
You can use the image stabilizer in AF or MF mode.
This function provides optimal image stabilization depending on
shooting conditions (such as shooting still subjects and following
shots).
ON

The image stabilizer in this lens is
effective for hand-held shots under the
following conditions.

Set the STABILIZER
switch to ON.

Ige Stabilizer will start
erating.
●●If you are not going to use t
image stabilizer function, set
the switch to OFF.
●● In semi-darkened areas such as
indoors or outdoors at night.
●● In locations where flash
photography is prohibited, such as
art museums and theater stages.
●● In situations where your footing is
uncertain.
●● When panning subjects in motion.
●● In situations where fast shutter
settings cannot be used.
●●Make sure the image in the
viewfinder is stable, then
press the shutter button the
rest of the way down to take
the picture.
ENG-8
Image Stabilizer
●●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 may not be fully effective
if you shoot from a violently shaking vehicle or
other transportation.
●●When shooting a still subject, it compensates for
camera shake in all directions.
●●It compensates for vertical camera shake during
following shots in a horizontal direction, and
compensats for horizontal camera shake during
following ss in a vertical direction.
●●Whyou e a tripod, the Image Stabilizer
should ed off to save battery power.
e stabilizs equally effective for hand-
photogray and photography with a
opod. The age Stabilizer effect may be
duced, however, depending on the shooting
nvironment.
●●The Image Stabilizer consumes more power than
normal shooting, resulting in fewer shots
shorter movie shooting time.
●●The image stabilizer operates for abou
seconds even when your fiff th
shutter button. Do not reme the lens w
the stabilizer is in operatioThis will cause
malfunction.
●●With the EOS-1V/HS, 3, EL7E/ELA
7/30/33, ELAN 7NE/ELAN 7N/3ELAN
II/ELAN IIE/50/50E, REBEL 2000/300, IX, and
D30, the Image Stabilizer will not work during
self-timer operation.
●●e image stabilizer function also operates when
the lens is used with an Extension Tube EF12 ll
or EF25 ll.
●●Pictures may look distorted after being taken
depending on the camera, but this doesn’t 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.

●Attaching
●Reving
To attach the hood, align the oodatta
position mark with the red don the front
lens, then turn the hood as own by the arrow
until the lens’ red dot is alignwith thood’s
stop position mark.
o remove the hood, hold down the button on
he side and turn the hood in the direction of the
arrow until the position mark on the hood aligns
with the red dot. The hood can be reverse-
mounted on the lens for storage.
●●If the hood is not attached properly, vignetting (darkening of the perimeter of the picture) may occur.
●●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.

(Sold separately)
You can attach filters to the filter mounting
thread on the front of the lens.
You can attach extension tube EF12 II or EF25
II for magnified shots. The shooting distance
and magnificatin are shown below.
●● To ensure dust- and water-resistant performance,
attach a Canon PROTECT filter (77mm).
●●Only one filter may be attached.
●●If you need a polarizing filter, use the Canon
Circular Polarizing Filter PL-C B (77 mm).
●●To adjust the polarizing filter, first remove the
