Thank you for purchasing a Canon product.

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.

Conventions used in this instruction

Warning to prevent lens or camera malfunction or damage.

Supplementary notes on using the lens and taking pictures.

1. Mounting and Detaching the Lens

See your camera’s instructions for details on mounting and detaching the

lens.

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, and turn

clockwise

. To remove it, reverse the order.

2. Setting the Focus Mode

To shoot in autofocus (AF) mode, set the focus mode 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 autofocusing in ONE SHOT AF mode, focus manually by pressing

the shutter button halfway and turning the focusing ring. (Full-time manual

focus)

3. Infinity Compensation Mark

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 distance scale L mark is aligned with the distance index

❹ .

For accurate manual focusing of subjects at infinity, look through the

viewfinder or look at the magnified image* on the LCD screen while

rotating the focusing ring.

* For cameras with Live View shooting capability.
