Detaching the Lens

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

• Turn the lens until the red dot is at the top, then detach the lens.

•Since the EOS 10D’s image coverage is smaller than the normal 35mm film format, the EF lens attached to the camera will have a telephoto effect equivalent to 1.6 times of the marked focal length.

•AF stands for autofocus.

•MF or M stands for manual focus.

•Be careful not to lose the lens caps or body cap.
