Do not leave the lens in excessive heat such as in a car in direct sunlight. High temperatures can cause the lens to malfunction.

General Precautions Handling Precautions 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.

Please also read any lens related handling precautions listed in your cameras instruction manual.

1. Mounting and Detaching the Lens See your cameras 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. (fig.)

Contacts that are scratched, soiled, or have fingerprints on them may result in faulty connections or corrosion, which may lead to malfunctions. If the contacts get soiled, clean them with a soft cloth.

Attach the lens cap and dust cap when disconnecting the lens. When attaching the dust cap, align the lens mount index with the k index of the dust cap and rotate in a clockwise direction as shown in the illustration. (fig.) Follow the reverse procedure to detach it.

2. Zooming Turn the lens zoom ring to adjust the size of the photo field or subject. (fig.) For wide shots, turn the zoom ring toward the wide end. For close-ups, turn the zoom ring toward the telephoto end.

Be sure to finish zooming before focusing. Zooming after focusing can affect the focus.

Blurring may temporarily occur if the zoom ring is quickly rotated.

Zooming during still image exposure will result in delayed focus. This causes any streaks of light that are captured during exposure to be blurred.

ENG-20816Ni CANON INC. 2016

3. Manual Focus When the cameras focus mode is set to [MF], focus manually by turning the focusing ring. (fig.)

Quickly rotating the focusing ring may result in delayed focus.

Focus mode is set using the camera. Please refer to the cameras instructions.

After autofocusing in [AF+MF] mode, focus manually by pressing the shutter button halfway and turning the focusing ring (full-time manual focusing).

4. Image Stabilizer This lens is equipped with an Image Stabilizer. This function corrects camera shake, allowing users to capture sharp images. Also, the Image Stabilizer automatically provides optimal image stabilization depending on shooting conditions (such as shooting still subjects and following shots). Please set the Image Stabilizer ON or OFF using the camera settings. See your cameras instructions for details.

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

The Image Stabilizer may not be fully effective if you shoot from a violently shaking vehicle or other transportation.

The Image Stabilizer consumes more power than normal shooting, resulting in fewer shots and a shorter movie shooting time.

When shooting a still subject, it compensates for camera shake in all directions.

It compensates for vertical camera shake during following shots in a horizontal direction, and compensates for horizontal camera shake during following shots in a vertical direction.

When you use a tripod, the Image Stabilizer should be turned off to save battery power.

Even with a monopod, the Image Stabilizer will be as effective as during hand-held shooting. However, depending on the shooting conditions, there are cases in which the Image Stabilizer effect may be less effective.

Dynamic IS Function (Movie shooting only) The EF-M18-150mm f/3.5-6.3 IS STM is equipped with dynamic IS, effective when shooting while walking since it expands the IS range. Achieves effective IS at the wide end. Automatically activates when the camera is set to Movie

Shooting.

5. Hood (sold separately) The EW-60F hood cuts out unwanted light and protects the front of the lens from rain, snow, and dust. To attach the hood, align the hoods attachment position mark with the red dot on the front of the lens, then turn the hood as shown by the arrow until the lens red dot is aligned with the hoods stop position mark. (fig.) The hood can be reverse-mounted on the lens for storage.

If the hood is not attached properly, vignetting (darkening of the perimeter of the picture) may occur.

Grasp and rotate the base of the hood when attaching and detaching it. There are cases in which it may become deformed if the hood is rotated with it grasped near to the rim.

6. Filters (sold separately) You can attach filters to the filter mounting thread on the front of the lens.

Only one filter may be attached.
