Attaching and Detaching a Lens

Zooming

Turn the zoom ring on the lens with your fingers.

If you want to zoom, do it before focusing. Turning the zoom ring after achieving focus may throw off the focus.

Detaching the Lens

While pressing the lens release button, turn the lens as shown by the arrows.

Turn the lens until it stops, then detach it.

Attach the rear lens cap to the detached lens.

To owners of the EF-S18-200mm f/3.5-5.6 IS lens:

You can prevent the lens from extending out while you are carrying it around. Set the zoom ring to the 18mm wide-angle end, then slide the zoom ring lock lever to <LOCK>. The zoom ring can be locked only at the wide-angle end.

Do not look at the sun directly through any lens. Doing so may cause loss of vision.

When attaching or detaching a lens, set the camera’s power switch to <2>.

If the front part (focusing ring) of the lens rotates during autofocusing, do not touch the rotating part.

If you purchased a lens kit with the EF-S18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM or EF-S18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM lens, see “Handling Precautions” on page 443.
