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 EOS-1Ds series) and use the

laser matte with grid focusing screen Ec-D

• Use Live View

• Use a tripod

●On EOS cameras with a built-in flash, some partial

restrictions may apply to the shift and rotation

functions.

Features

1. Aspherical and UD lens elements result in

outstanding image delineation.

2. SWC (Subwavelength Structure Coating)

dramatically reduces ghosting and flare

caused by light entering at an acute angle.

3. The lens can be tilted up to ±6.5° (for TS-

E17mm f/4L) or ±8.5° (for TS-E24mm f/3.5L

II), and shifted up to ±12mm.

4. The tilt and shift functions can be used singly

or in combination. The tilt and shift can switch

from right angle to parallel using the TS

rotation feature.

5. The lens can be rotated to change the tilt or

shift direction.

6. A truly round aperture hole results in a nicer

background blur.

Thank you for purchasing a Canon product.

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

“0”

.Fingers may get caught, or the

camera may be damaged.

●

When you tilt or shift the lens, sharp portions of the

tilt or shift mechanism are exposed and care should

be taken to avoid touching these portions.

●

Do not operate the shift function while operating the

rotation function. You may be injured by having your

fingers caught.

Handling 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.

●Do not leave the lens in excessive heat such as in a

car in direct sunlight. High temperatures can cause

the lens to malfunction.

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.

Conventions used in this instruction

Warning to prevent lens or camera malfunction

or damage.

Supplementary notes on using the lens and

taking pictures.

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is

subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not

cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any

interference received, including interference that may cause

undesired operation.

unless otherwise specified in the instructions. If such changes or

modifications should be made, you could be required to stop

operation of the equipment.

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the

limits for a class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC

Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection

against harmful interference in a residential installation. This

equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency

energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the

instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio

communications.

However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in

a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful

interference to radio or television reception, which can be

determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is

encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of

the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for

help.

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 to

keep the shift knob cap in place. Always use the supplied screw.

Remove the shift knob

screw.

Mount the cap by squeezing it into

the shift knob, and then fix it using

the supplied screw.

To remove the cap, remove the

screw and pull out the cap.

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 shown by the arrow until the lens’ red

dot is aligned with the cap’s stop position mark.

Do not use the strap to lift the lens while the lens

cap is attaching the lens. The lens may fall and

break.

The removed lens cap can be hooked on the tripod

using the supplied strap.

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 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.

●After using tilt or shift, readjust the focus.

●The distance scale is only valid when the tilt

scale is set to the “0” position.

ENG-8

For cameras which allow Live View shooting,

focusing using the LCD monitor’s magnified image

is recommended.

3. Tilt Function

Tilting inclines the lens relative to the image plane. When the tilt scale 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 field (Example 1). Or, by tilting in the opposite direction, you can focus on a

specific part of the subject (Example 2).
