1. When an IASE S or IASE-C S type lens is used, set the focus operation change-over knob to the SERVO position.

2. Mount the accessory such as a focus demand. For details, refer to the operation manual of the accessories.

The lens with built-in extender has a built-in 2x extender.

Use the extender lever to switch between 1x and 2x.

When the extender is used, note that the light quantity may decrease by the zoom ratio depending on the iris correction setting.

5-4. IRIS OPERATION

The iris operation mode can be switched between auto and manual with the iris operation mode change-over switch.

5-4-1. Automatic Iris Operation

Iris Operation Mode Change-over Switch

Slide the iris operation mode change-over switch to the "A" position. The iris operation is performed automatically by the instruction from the camera, to keep the video signal level constant.

5-4-2. Manual Iris Operation

Close Open Canon Iris ring

Slide the iris operation mode change-over switch to the "M" position. The iris operation is performed by turning the iris ring on the lens body.

NOTE

The iris operation mode change-over switch must be set to the M position before performing manual iris operations. The lens may be damaged if manual iris operations are forcibly performed with the knob at the A position.

Instant Auto-Iris Switch A.M T N

When the instant auto-iris switch is pressed during manual iris operation mode, the iris changes to automatic operation mode while the switch is held down.

This adjustment can be performed on the information display. Refer to the Information Display Manual.

In macro shooting, the object distance becomes shorter than the normal minimum object distance (M.O.D.). The minimum object distance by macro operation for this lens is 10mm at the widest angle.

Macro Button Canon Macro Ring

To operate the macro, press the macro button to unlock the macro ring. While holding it down, turn the macro ring at the rear of the lens clockwise as viewed from the camera side to allow macro shooting.

1 Set the lens to the widest angle by manual or servo zoom operation.

2 Bring the object into focus by turning the macro ring.

Macro operation is also possible at any zoom position other than the widest angle, but the object distance increases.

Multi-point Focus Shooting

In macro shooting, when zooming to change the focal length, the focal point varies.

The multi-point focus shooting technique uses this characteristic. The focal point is shifted by the zoom operation. Follow the steps below:

1 Zoom in to a far object, and bring it into focus by normal focus operation.

2 Zoom out to a near object and bring into focus by macro operation.

3 Zoom in to the far object again while not touching the macro button set by above step 2, and bring into focus again by normal focus operation.

5-6. SWITCH OPERATIONS

Functions can be assigned to the five switches: the VTR, RET, AUX switches, or AUX1 and AUX2 switches on the information display. "VTR", "RET", "Shtl", and "Fr1P" functions are assigned respectively by default.

The following steps explain how to assign the functions to the switches in basic mode. For further details, refer to the Information Display Operation Manual.
