ENG-2

General Precautions

Handling Precautions
z Do not leave the product in excessive heat such as in a car in direct sunlight. High temperatures can cause the product to malfunction.
z 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.
z When the lens is not attached to the camera or the power switch of the camera is in the off status when the lens is attached, shaking the lens may cause the internal lens group to shift and noise may occur, but this is not a malfunction. Although the internal lens group shifts due to vibration such as when the lens is carried, this will not affect aspects such as performance.
z In order to optimize aperture control, there are occasions in which the aperture blades will move during focusing, even when the aperture value is set for aperture-priority AE or manual exposure, etc.
z Please also read any lens related handling precautions listed in your camera's instruction manual.

Shooting Precautions
z Focus again after recovering from the auto power off status.
z To maintain the focus position in the shooting-ready status, set [Auto power off] to [Disable] on the camera.

Dust cap

Attaching the Lens
Align the lens mount indexes of the lens and camera, and turn the lens clockwise until you hear a click.

Detaching the Lens
Turn the lens counterclockwise while pressing the camera's lens release button. Detach the lens once it has stopped turning.

z Attach the lens cap before detaching the lens from the camera.
z After detaching the lens, place the lens with the rear end up and attach the dust cap to prevent the lens surface and contacts from getting scratched. Make sure the lens and dust cap mount indexes are aligned when attaching the dust cap.
z Contacts that are scratched, soiled, or have fingerprints on them may result in faulty connections or corrosion, which may lead to malfunctions. If the contacts get soiled, clean them with a soft cloth.
z The lens mount has a rubber ring to improve dust-resistance and water-resistance performance. This rubber ring may cause friction marks to appear around the camera's lens mount, although this will have no effect on usage.
z Rubber rings can be replaced at Canon Service Center. (chargeable)

z Quickly turning the focusing ring may result in delayed focus.

Focusing ring
To shoot in autofocus (AF) mode, set the focus mode switch to AF. To use only manual focusing (MF), set the focus mode switch to MF, and focus by turning the focusing ring.

z The lens' focusing ring is electronic. z With a camera capable of electronic full-time
manual focus, manual focusing is always possible while the camera is operable. However, this requires a change in camera settings. z When AF operation is set to One-Shot AF, manual focus is possible after autofocusing has been completed by continuing to press the shutter button halfway (electronic manual focus function). However, this requires a change in camera settings. z When movie recording, the AF speed will be slower than the still photo shooting mode. It is possible to adjust the AF speed on the camera by setting Movie Servo AF to [Enable].
Please refer to the camera's instructions for details.

z There are cases in which the sound of control ring operations may be recorded when shooting movies. z The clicking sensation of the control ring can be removed by the Canon Service Center. (chargeable) z The focus ring can be used as the control ring by changing the camera settings*. However, when the
focus ring is used as the control ring, the original control ring operation will be disabled. Please refer to the camera's instructions for details. * Excluding EOS R, RP, Ra, R5, R5C, and R6.

Manual/ Auto Aperture Operation z For manual aperture operation with the Iris Ring and when shooting movies, the aperture value changes in 1/32 steps, regardless of the camera settings. Consequently, the actual aperture value when shooting movies may vary from the aperture value displayed on the camera. z Some cameras *¹ *², have the following limitations. · The iris ring cannot be used to set the aperture value when shooting still images. · During movie shooting, when using the iris ring operation, focusing on a subject by autofocus may be difficult. In addition, the aperture value displayed on the camera may differ from the actual aperture value. *1 EOS R, RP, Ra, R3, R5, R6, R6 Mark II, R7, R8, R10, R50, R100 *2 EOS R5C is limited only when shooting still images.

Filters (Sold separately) z Only one filter with a thickness of 0.2 mm/0.008 in. or less may be used. z When printing the template, make sure that the illustration size remains the same. Check that the printedout size is the same as the measurements shown in the illustration. z Cut along the middle of the lines printed on the filter template. Any deviation from the template line width can cause the following issues. Note 1: If you cut inside the lines, light will come in around the edges of the filter, preventing it from working fully. In particular, there can be differences with exposure and color patches in the corners. Note 2: If you cut outside the lines, it may not fit in the rear filter holder, or the filter corners could contact the camera, damaging the camera or filter.
