4. 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).
1. Set the STABILIZER switch to ON ❺ .
● If you are not going to use the image stabilizer function, set the switch to OFF.
2. When you press the shutter button halfway, the Image Stabilizer will start
operating.
● Make sure the image in the viewfinder is stable, then press the shutter button
the rest of the way down to take the picture.
● The Image Stabilizer cannot compensate for a blurred shot caused by a
subject that moved.
● The Image Stabilizer may not be fully effective if you shoot from a
violently shaking vehicle or other transportation.
● The Image Stabilizer consumes more power than normal shooting, so
fewer shots can be taken if you use the function.
● 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 compensates for horizontal camera shake
during following shots in a vertical direction.
● When you use a tripod, the Image Stabilizer should be turned off to save
battery power.
● The stabilizer is equally effective for handheld photography and
photography with a monopod. The Image Stabilizer effect may be
reduced, however, depending on the shooting environment.
● The Image Stabilizer also operates when the lens is used with extension
tube EF12 II or EF25 II.
● 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.
5. Hood (Sold Separately)
The EW-65B 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 the lens, then turn the hood in the direction of the arrow until the
lens’s red dot is aligned with the hood’s stop position mark ❻ .
To remove the hood, hold down the button on the side and turn the hood in the
direction of the arrow until the position mark on the hood aligns with the red dot ❼ .
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.
6. Filters (Sold Separately)
You can attach filters to the filter mounting thread on the front of the lens.
● Only one filter may be attached.
● Use a polarizing Canon filter (58mm).
● To adjust the polarizing filter, first remove the lens hood.
