Using the EF24-105mm f/4L IS II USM and EF-S18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM Lenses
This section explains how to use the EF24-105mm f/4L IS II USM and EF-S18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM lenses*,
which are supplied separately in some lens kits sold in select regions. For details on attaching a lens, refer to
Attaching an EF Lens (A 31). Illustrations in this section show the EF24-105mm f/4L IS II USM lens unless
stated otherwise.
* "IS" stands for Image Stabilizer. "USM" stands for Ultrasonic Motor. "STM" stands for Stepping Motor.
Attaching the Lens Hood
When the EW-83M hood (supplied with the EF24-105mm f/4L IS II USM lens) or EW-73B hood (optional
accessory for the EF-S18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM lens) is attached to the lens, it blocks stray light and protects
the front of the lens from snow, rain, dust, etc. Before storing the lens in a bag, you can attach the hood in
reverse.
1 Align the red dots on the hood and lens edges.
2 Turn the hood as shown in the illustration.
• Turn the lens hood clockwise until it attaches securely.
IMPORTANT
• When attaching or detaching the lens hood, grasp the base of the
hood when turning it. Grasping the hood's edges when turning it
may deform the hood.
NOTES
• If the hood is not properly attached, it may obstruct the image's
periphery, making it look dark.
Zooming
To zoom, turn the lens's zoom ring.
NOTES
• If you want to zoom, do so before focusing. Turning the zoom ring after
achieving focus may throw off the focus slightly.
• With the EF-S18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM lens, blurring may occur
temporarily if the zoom ring is turned too quickly.
