    Slide the tilt-lock button in the direction of
    arrow A. Loosen the tilt lock knob by turning
    it in the direction of arrow B.
    Using Tilt
    When you tilt the lens, sharp portions of the tilt
    mechanism are exposed and care should be
    taken to avoid touching these portions.
    T
    urn the tilt lock knob in the direction of the
    arrow to lock the amount of tilt for the shot. T
    urn the tilt knob to adjust the amount of tilt.
    Focus the shot by turning the focusing ring.
    To   keep the tilt scale locked in the “0” position, slide
    the tilt lock button in the direction of “LOCK”, then turn
    the tilt lock knob in the direction of the arrow shown in
    Step 3.

    4. Shift Function
    Shifting moves the optical axis of the lens in parallel off the center of the imaging plane.
    Shift can be used to good effect in the situations shown below.
    ●If you photograph a subject such as a
    building with a normal lens, the top of
    the building tapers away. But by placing
    the camera parallel to the building and
    shifting the lens, you can correct this
    tapering effect.●When you are shooting a reflective
    subject, you can move the camera to a
    position where the camera does not
    appear in the shot and then use shift to
    take the picture. This lets you keep the
    camera out of the shot without having
    to change the shot composition.

    Using ShiftTurn the shift lock knob in
    the direction of the arrow to
    lock the amount of shift for
    the shot.
    Loosen the shift lock knob
    by turning it in the direction
    of the arrow.
    T
    urn the shift knob to adjust
    the amount of shift. Focus
    the shot by turning the
    focusing ring.
    When you shift the lens, sharp portions of the shift mechanism are expos\
    ed and care should be taken to
    avoid touching these portions. For EOS cameras with built-in flash, ther\
    e may be contact with the lens while
    you operate the shift function.
    ● With large amounts of shift, the amounts of peripheral light at the top \
    and bottom or left and right sides of
    the screen may differ, so shooting with a small aperture is recommended.
    ● The shift operation will be easier if the supplied cap is mounted on the\
     shift knob (p.6).

    5. Rotation
    The rotation function enables you to change the direction of tilt or
    shift by rotating the tilt-shift mechanism.
    With the lens mounted on the camera, push the rotation lock release
    button towards the mount and then turn the tilt-shift mechanism.
    ●The rotation mechanism can be rotated through ±90°. The lens clicks every
    30° and locks in place in the 90° position.
    ●When rotating the lens, set the tilt and shift scales to the “0” p\
    osition.
    ● Note that rotating the tilt-shift mechanism quickly while pressing on th\
    e
    rotation lock release button may cause the shift lock knob to strike you\
    r
    fingers.
    ● Do not operate the shift function while operating the rotation function.\
    You may be injured by having your fingers caught.
    ● For EOS cameras with built-in flash, there may be contact with the lens
    while you operate the rotation function.
    In order to prevent shifts in position while shooting, shooting while
    rotation is locked, or shooting per click position is recommended.

    Changing the Operation Direction of Tilt and Shift (TS rotation Function)
    When the tilt and shift are used in a parallel direction,
    vignetting will occur in the areas marked in gray in the 
    following table.
    In order to prevent shifts in position while shooting, shooting
    while TS rotation is locked, or shooting per click position is
    recommended.
    By using the TS rotation function, 
    the relationship of the tilt and shift’s
    operation direction can switch from
    right angle to parallel.
    Press the TS rotation lock release
    button in the mounting direction while
    the lens is mounted on the camera,
    and then turn the tilt component.
    ●There are clicks at the 45°position, and
    will be fixed in either the right angle or
    parallel position.

    The depth of field is the distance in front of and
    behind the plane of focus on the subject that
    appears sharp. The depth of field is indicated by
    the area between the depth-of-field scale lines
    below the distance scale. 
    The infrared index corrects the focus setting
    when using monochrome infrared film. Focus on
    the subject in MF, then adjust the distance
    setting by moving the focusing ring to the
    corresponding infrared index mark.

    7. Infrared Index
    (TS-E24mm f/3.5L II)
    ●
    The depth-of-field scale is only valid when the
    tilt scale is set to the “0” position.
    ● The depth-of-field scale is an approximate
    indicator.
    ●The infrared index position is based on a
    wavelength of 800 nm.
    ● Be sure to observe the manufacturer’s
    instructions when using infrared film.
    ● Use a red filter also when you take the picture.
    Some EOS cameras cannot use infrared film. See
    the instructions for your EOS camera.

    8.TS-E Tripod  Adapter (Sold Separately)9. Exposure
    With some camera models, the tilt, shift and
    rotation functions cannot be used when the
    camera is mounted directly on a tripod. When
    this happens, fit the optional TS-E tripod adapter
    into the tripod mount socket on the camera
    before mounting the camera on the tripod.Shots can be taken using AE (automatic
    exposure) as long as the tilt and shift scales are
    set to the “0” position.
    The use of AE is not recommended when the
    lens is tilted or shifted as exposure errors may
    result. It is recommended that you use the
    exposure values when the tilt and shift scales
    are set to the “0” position as a guide and then
    take the shot with as many exposure settings as
    possible.

    10. Hood (TS-E24mm f/3.5L II)
    The EW-88B lens hood can keep unwanted light out of the lens, and also protect\
    s 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 as shown by the arrow 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.
    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.
    ● Cutting off harmful rays entering the lens by using both a hood as well as a piece\
     of cardboard is 
    recommended.
    ● Ahood is not available for TS-E17mm f/4L.

    ou can attach filters to the filter mounting
    thread on the front of the lens.
    11. Filters (Sold Separately)
    (TS-E24mm f/3.5L II)
    ● Only one filter may be attached.
    ● Use a polarizing Canon filter (82mm).
    Afilter cannot be used with TS-E17mm f/4L.
    12. Infinity Compensation Mark
    (TS-E24mm f/3.5L II)
    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.
    For accurate focusing of subjects at infinity, look
    through the viewfinder’s magnified image* or the
    LCD screen’s magnified image* while rotating the
    focusing ring.
    * For cameras with Live View shooting capability.

    ● Although extension tube EF25 II can be
    attached on TS-E24mm f/3.5L II, it is not
    recommended because the lens-to-subject
    distance will be very short.
