his 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.
Do not make any changes or modifications to the equipment
unless otherwise specified in the instructions. If such changes or
modifications should be made, you could be required to stop
operation of the equipment.
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
generes, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
alled and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause
rmful 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:

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.
Handling Cautions
• 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 leave the lens in excessive heat such as in
a car in direct sunlight. High temperatures can
cause the lens to malfunction.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
•
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003.
a Precautions for using the lens with the
EOS-1N RS
When shooting with this lens attached to an EOS-1N
RS, use -2/3 or -1/2 step exposure compensation.

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
water- and dust-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
electrical 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 K index of the dust cap as shown in the
diagram, and turn clockwise. To remove it, reverse
the order.

2. Setting the Focus Mode
3. Switching the Focusing
Distance Range
To shoot in autofocus (AF) mode, set the focus
mode switch to AF.
To use only manual focusing (MF), set the focu
mode switch to MF, and focus by turning the
focusing ring. The focusing ring always works,
regardless of the focus mode.
You an set the focusing distance range to
m/2.3 ft. to infinity or 2.5 m/8.2 ft. to infinity.
By setting the suitable focusing distance range,
the actual autofocusing time can be shorter.
If you autofocus outside the set focusing distance
range, the lens may stop focusing at the start of
the focusing range; however, this is not a
malfunction. Press the shutter release button
halfway again.
After autofocusing in ONE SHOT AF mode, focus
manually by pressing the shutter button halfway
and turning the focusing ring. (Full-time manual
focus)

4. Zooming
5. Adjusting Zooming Resistance
Move the zoom ring forward or backward to
zoom.
You can adjust the zooming “touch” (resistance)
as needed by holding the focusing ring in place
nd turning the adjustment ring.
• Be sure to finish zooming before focusing.
Zooming after focusing can affect the focus.
• To prevent unintended zooming when not
shooting, be careful not to set the zooming touch
too loose.
Turn the 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 adjustment ring towards TIGHT until
it stops.

7. Tips on Using the Image Stabilizer
The image stabilizer in this lens is effective for hand-held shots under the following conditions.
● MODE 1
● MODE 2
• 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 Image Stabilizer cannot compensate for a
blurred shot caused by a subject that moved.
• 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 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
hooting.
•
Set the STABILIZER switch to
when you are
taking pictures using the Bulb setting (long
exposures). If the STABILIZER switch is set to
the image stabilizer function may introduce errors.
• The Image Stabilizer might not be fully effective in
the following cases:
• You shoot while riding on a bumpy road.
• You move the camera dramatically for a panning
shot in Mode 1.
• You shoot using techniques other than following
shots in Mode 2.
,
• 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.
• 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
IIE/50/50E, REBEL 2000/300, IX, and D30, the
Image Stabilizer will not work during self-timer
operation.

8. Infinity Compensation Mark 9. Infrared Index
Infinity Compensation Mark
The infrared index corrects the focus setting
Distance index
when using monochrome infrared film. Focus on
the subject manually, then adjust the distance
setting by moving the focusing ring to the
corresponding infrared index mark.
e intermediate markers between 300 and 100
are 200mm and 135mm, and the marker
between 100 and 50 is 70mm.
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 manual focusing 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 when you take the picture.

11. Hood
12. Filters (Sold Separately)
You can attach filters to the filter mounting thread
on the front of the lens.
• Only one filter may be attached.
• If you need a polarizing filter, use the Canon
Circular Polarizing Filter (77mm).
• To adjust the polarizing filter, first remove the lens
hood.
The EW-83G hood can keep unwanted light out
of the lens, and also protects the lens from rain,
snow, and dust.
To attach the hood, align the hood’s attachment
position mark with the red dot on the front of th
lens, then turn the hood as shown by the arow
until the lens' red dot is aligned with the hood's
stop position mark.
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.
