    10. Tips on Using the Image Stabilizer
    ●MODE 1 ●MODE 2
    The image stabilizer in this lens is effective for hand-held shots under the following conditions.
    • 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.
    •I n situations where fast shutter settings cannot
    be used. •
    When panning subjects in motion.

    Tips on Using the Image Stabilizer
    •The Image Stabilizer cannot compensate for a
    blurred shot caused by a subject that moved.
    • 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:
    •Y ou shoot while riding on a bumpy road.
    •Y ou move the camera dramatically for a
    panning shot in Mode 1.
    •Y ou shoot using techniques other than
    f ollowing shots in Mode 2.
    • 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.
    •W ith the EOS-1V/HS, 3, ELAN 7E/ELAN
    7/30/33, ELAN 7NE/ELAN 7N/30V/33V, ELAN
    II/ELAN II E/50/50E, REBEL2000/300, IX, and
    D30, the Image Stabilizer will not work during
    self-timer operation.• Using a tripod also stabilizes the image.
    However, depending on the kind of tripod and
    shooting conditions, sometimes it may be better
    to turn off the Image Stabilizer function.
    • 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 the EF12 II or EF25
    II Extension Tube, and the EF1.4X II or EF2X II
    Extender.
    • Pictures may look distorted after being taken
    depending on the camera, but this doesnt 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.

    Removing and Installing
    To  remove the drop-in filter, press in the left and
    r ight lock buttons and pull the filter holder straight
    up out of the slot.
    To   install the drop-in filter, push the filter holder
    straight down into the slot until it clicks into place.
    • The filter holder can be installed facing either forwards
    or backwards.
    Using a Gelatin Filter
    Lift up the holder’s retaining frame
    Tr im the gelatin filter as shown in the figure,
    and mount it in the holder.
    Return the retaining frame to its closed
    position.
    Because the lens optics are designed to include a
    glass filter, you must always install the filter
    holder, even if no gelatin filter is fitted.
    The Drop-In Screw-Type Filter Holder 52 and
    Drop-In Circular Polarizing Filter PL-C52 are also
    av ailable (Sold separately).

    12. Extenders (Sold separately)
    •First attach the Extender to the lens, then attach the lens to the camera. Detach it from the
    camera in the reverse order. If you attach the lens to the camera first, misoperation may
    occur.
    • Only one Extender can be attached to the lens and camera.
    • If you use an Extender on the lens mounted on a EOS A2/A2E/5, set the exposure
    compensation to -1/2 stop for the EF1.4X II or -1 stop for the EF2X II.
    With Extender EF1.4X ll or EF2X ll attached, the lens specifications wil\
    l change as follows:
    When an Extender is attached, the AF speed will become slower by design to retain proper AF
    control.
