Canon lens EFM 28mm f35 Macro IS STM User Manual

ENG-10
This lens is equipped with an Image Stabilizer. 
This function corrects camera shake, allowing 
users to capture sharp images. Also, the Image 
Stabilizer automatically provides optimal image 
stabilization depending on shooting conditions 
(such as shooting still subjects and following 
shots). Please set the Image Stabilizer ON 
or OFF using the camera settings. See your 
camera’s instructions for details.

Image Stabilizer
●
● The shorter the subject distance from the 
camera, the lesser the Image Stabilizer effect 
will be.
●
● The Image Stabilizer cannot compensate for a 
blurred shot caused by a subject that moved.
●
● Set the Image Stabilizer to OFF when you are 
taking pictures using the Bulb setting (long 
exposures). If the Image Stabilizer is set to ON, 
the image stabilizer function may introduce 
errors.

Setting the Exposure
When taking photographs using TTL metering, 
no exposure compensation is necessary to 
meter the light coming through the lens.  
With TTL metering, AE (autoexposure) is 
possible at all focusing distances. Just set the 
desired picture-taking mode, then check the 
shutter speed and aperture before taking the 
picture.
Magnification and Effective f-number
The aperture displayed by the camera assumes 
that the focus is set to infinity. The actual 
aperture (effective f-number)...

Macro Lite A
Macro Lite B
The Macro Lites on the front of the lens shine 
light on the subject during close-up (macro) 
photography to facilitate shooting. There are two 
light-emitting Macro Lites located on both sides 
of the lens, and it is possible to illuminate both 
simultaneously or either of them independently.
1.  Set the mode selection ring to either the 
normal mode or the super macro mode.
2.  Press the Macro Lite ON button to illuminate 
the Macro Lites.

Macro Lites
●
● The Macro Lites cast shadows from the camera 
and lens onto the subject during close-up 
(macro) photography to facilitate shooting and 
improve the end result. They are not designed to 
shine sufficient light on subjects when shooting 
in dark locations.

● The Macro Lites are extinguished when the 
camera’s power-saving function (Auto Power Off) 
turns off the power.
