ENG-1
Canon’s TS-E lenses are tilt-shift lenses
designed for EOS cameras. The tilt-shift
mechanism enables photographers to control
the depth of field and the area photographed
and to correct image distortion, making it
possible to take sophisticated pictures that
cannot be shot using a conventional lens.
●To   ensure that you make the most of the TS-E lens
functionality, it is recommended that you shoot in the
following conditions. • Use an EOS camera with 100% viewfinder visibility (EOS-1, EOS-1D or...

aSafety 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.
●To   mount/detach the lens, always move the tilt and
shift scales to...

aSafety Precautions
Countermeasures for harmful rays
The TS-E17mm f/4L has a wide angle of view, and the
lens protrudes from the front frame, so it can be
affected by harmful rays. To  prevent flare and ghosting,
cutting off the harmful rays entering the lens with a piece
of cardboard is recommended.
Cutting off harmful rays is also recommended for TS-
E24mm f/3.5L II, by using both the hood and the method
used for TS-E17mm f/4L.

About the Shift Knob Cap
Shifting will be easier if the supplied shift knob cap is mounted (p.4)\
.
However, for EOS cameras with built-in flash, the cap will come in contact with\
 the camera during
the lens’ mounting/detaching, or during shift/rotation operation. The shift knob cap is recommended
for use with EOS-1, EOS-1D, EOS-1Ds, and EOS 5D series.
The screw (length 2.2mm) originally in the shift knob cannot be used t\
o
keep the shift knob cap in place. Always use the supplied screw.

Mounting/Removing the Lens Cap (TS-E17mm f/4L)
The lens of TS-E17mm f/4L protrudes from the front frame. To protect the lens, keep it covered with
the exclusive lens cap when not shooting.
●  Removing
To   remove the cap, hold down the button on the side
and turn the cap in the direction of the arrow until the
position mark on the cap aligns with the red dot.  ● 
Attaching
To   attach the cap, align the cap’s attachment position
mark with the red dot on the front of the lens, then
turn the cap as...

1.Mounting and Detaching the Lens
Focus a TS-E lens by turning the focusing ring.
(Shots cannot be taken using the auto focus.)
See your camera’s instructions for details on
mounting and detaching the lens.
2. Focusing 
●
When mounting or detaching the lens, always
ensure that the tilt and shift scales are set to the
“0” position.
● 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...

ENG-9
3. Tilt Function
Tilting inclines the lens relative to the image plane. When the tilt scal\
e is set to the “0” position, the
focusing and imaging planes are parallel. However, tilting puts the focusing plane at an angle to the
imaging plane.
● Example 1● Example 2
To   shoot so that all of an extensive subject is in focus, you must normally\
 use a small aperture to
obtain a large depth of field. But tilting allows you to keep all of the\
 subject in focus even when there
is insufficient depth of...
