English Instructions

Thank you for purchasing a Canon product.

Canon EF28-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM is a high-

performance lens developed for EOS cameras that

incorporates an Image Stabilizer function.

●“IS” stands for Image Stabilizer.

●“USM” stands for Ultrasonic Motor.

Features

1. The Image Stabilizer gives the equivalent effect of a

shutter speed two stops* faster.

2. High-magnification zoom from 28 mm wide-angle to

135 mm telephoto.

3. Ultrasonic motor (USM) for fast, quiet autofocus.

4. Manual focusing is available after the subject comes

into focus in autofocus mode (ONE SHOT AF).

5. Great close-ups at 0.5 m/1.6 ft at all focal lengths.

*Based on [1/focal length] second.

Generally, it requires a shutter speed [1/focal length]

second or faster to prevent camera shake.

Conventions used in this instruction

Warning to prevent lens or camera

malfunction or damage.

Supplementary notes on using the lens and

taking pictures.

aHandling Cautions

If the lens is taken from a cold environment into a warm

one, condensation may develop on the lens surface and

internal parts. To prevent condensation in this case, first put

the lens into an airtight plastic bag before taking it from a cold

to warm environment. Then take out the lens after it has

warmed gradually. Do the same when taking the lens from a

warm environment into a cold one.

aSafety Precautions

1. 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.

2. 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.

1. Mounting and Detaching the Lens

See your camera’s instructions for details on mounting and detaching the lens.

•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 have fingerprints on them,

corrosion or faulty connections can result. The camera and lens

may not operate properly.

•If the contacts get soiled or have fingerprints on them, clean them

with a soft cloth.

•If you remove the lens, cover it with the dust cap. To attach it properly, align the lens mount index and the index of the

dust cap, and turn clockwise. To remove it, reverse the order.

3. Setting the Focus Mode

To shoot in autofocus (AF) mode, set the focus mode switch to AF.

To shoot in manual focus (MF) mode, set the focus mode switch to MF, and

focus by turning the focusing ring. The focusing ring always works,

regardless of the focus mode.

After autofocusing in ONE SHOT AF mode, focus manually by pressing the

shutter button halfway and turning the focusing ring. (Full-time manual focus)

2. Zooming

To zoom, turn the lens’ zoom ring.

Be sure to finish zooming before focusing. Changing the zoom ring after

focusing can affect the focus.

5. Tips on Using the Image Stabilizer

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.

•In situations where fast shutter settings cannot be used.

•The Image Stabilizer cannot compensate for a blurred shot caused by a subject that moved.

•Set the STABILIZER switch to OFF when using the camera on a tripod. If the switch is set to ON, the Image Stabilizer may

introduce errors.

•Set the STABILIZER switch to OFF when you are taking pictures using the Bulb setting (long exposures). If the

STABILIZER switch is set to ON, the image stabilizer function may introduce errors.

•The Image Stabilizer might not be fully effective in the following cases:

•You move the camera for a panned shot.

•You shoot while riding on a bumpy road.

•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.

•With the EOS-1V/HS, 3, ELAN 7E/ELAN 7/30/33, ELAN 7NE/ELAN 7N/30V/33V, ELAN II/ELAN II E/50/50E, REBEL

2000/300, IX, IX Lite/IX7, and D30, the Image Stabilizer will not work during self-timer operation.

•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 an extension tube EF12 II or EF25 II.

•Depending on the camera there may be image shake, such as after releasing the shutter. However, this does not 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.

6. Infinity Compensation Mark

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.

7. Infrared Index

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.

For accurate focusing in MF on subjects at infinity distance, look through the

viewfinder while rotating the focusing ring.

•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. Hood and Filters

Hood (Sold Separately) The EW-78B II lens 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. 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.
