-. • When switching to vertical shooting, rotate the
camera so that the grip is at the top. Rotating
the camera
in the opposite direction will have
the grip bump into the tripod mount.
• Before attaching or detaching the lens, set the
tripod mount back to its normal position
(horizontal shooting position). Otherwise, the
tripod mount may bump into the camera grip or
pentaprism and prevent the lens from being
attached to or detached from the camera.
• If the EOS camera has a built-in flash, the
pentaprism may prevent the tripod mount from
being rotated to the top of the lens.
To mount the lens on a tripod, Tripod mount ring 8
(8) and the tripod mount adapter (sold separately) for
the EF100mm f/2.8 Macro
USM will be necessary.
