Tips on Using the Image Stabilizer

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

●Set the STABILIZER switch to OFF when using the camera on a tripod. If the switch is set to ON, the Image Stabilizer may introduce errors.

●Set the STABILIZER switch to OFF when you are taking pictures using the Bulb setting (long exposures). If the STABILIZER switch is set to ON, the image stabilizer function may introduce errors.

●The Image Stabilizer might not be fully effective in the following cases:

•You shoot from a violently moving vehicle.

•You move the camera dramatically for a panning shot in Mode 1.

•You shoot using techniques other than following shots in Mode 2.

●The Image Stabilizer consumes more power than normal shooting, so fewer shots can be taken if you use the function.

●The image stabilizer operates for about two seconds even when your finger is off the shutter button. Do not remove the lens while the stabilizer is in operation. This will cause a malfunction.

●With the EOS-1V/HS, 3, ELAN 7E/ELAN 7/30/33, ELAN 7NE/ELAN 7N/30V/33V, ELAN II/ELAN II E/50/50E, REBEL 2000/300, IX, IX Lite/IX7, and D30, the Image Stabilizer will not work during self- timer operation.

●The stabilizer is equally effective for hand-held photography and photography with a monopod.

●The image stabilizer function also operates when the lens is used with an extension tube EF12 II or EF25 II.

●When using extender EF1.4⋅ II/EF2⋅ II, you can use the Image Stabilizer with the following cameras: EOS-1Ds Mark III, EOS-1Ds Mark II, EOS-1Ds, EOS-1D Mark III, EOS-1D Mark II N, EOS-1D Mark II, EOS-1D, EOS 40D, 30D, 20D, 20Da, 10D, 5D, EOS DIGITAL REBEL XSi/EOS 450D, EOS DIGITAL REBEL XTi/400D DIGITAL, EOS DIGITAL REBEL XT/350D DIGITAL, EOS DIGITAL REBEL/300D DIGITAL, EOS D60, D30, EOS DCS1, DCS3, D2000, D6000, EOS-1V/HS, EOS- 1N/DP/HS/RS, 3, ELAN 7E/ELAN 7/30/33, ELAN 7NE/ELAN 7N/30V/33V, ELAN II/ELAN II E/50/50E, 3000/88, REBEL XS/500, REBEL 2000/300, REBEL Ti/300V, REBEL T2/300X, REBEL K2/3000V, IX, IX Lite/IX7

●Depending on the camera there may be image shake, such as after releasing the shutter. However, this does not affect shooting.

●If you set the camera’s Custom Function to change the assigned button to operate the AF, the Image Stabilizer will operate when you press the newly assigned AF button.
