Attaching and Detaching a Lens

Detaching the Lens

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

Turn the lens until it stops, then detach it.

Attach the rear lens cap to the detached lens.

About Zooming

To zoom, 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 slightly.

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

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

The focus preset function of some lenses cannot be used with this camera. Also, Power Zoom cannot be used even if you attach a lens featuring the Power Zoom function, like the EF35-80mm f/4-5.6 POWER ZOOM.

Lens Focal Length (Image Conversion Factor)

Since the image sensor size

is smaller than the 35mm film format, it will look like

the lens focal length is increased by approx. 1.6x.

Image sensor size (Approx.) (22.3 x 14.9 mm / 0.88 x 0.59 in.)

35mm image size

(36 x 24 mm / 1.42 x 0.94 in.)

Example: An 18-55mm focal length would be equivalent to an approx. 29- 88mm focal length on a 35mm camera.
