Mounting the hood on the lens
2 Mounting and Connection
NOTE
1. Attach the lens cap before detaching the lens from the camera.
2. After detaching the lens, place the lens with the rear end up to prevent the lens surface and contacts from
getting scratched. If the contacts get soiled, scratched, or have ngerprints on them, corrosion or faulty
connections can result. The camera and lens may not operate properly. If the contacts get soiled or have
ngerprints on them, clean them with a soft cloth.
3. Rated voltage of the drive unit : 12 V DC
Input voltage range of the drive unit : 10 V to 17 V DC
If a battery or adapter is used, the output voltage may be higher than the rated voltage depending on the
manufacturers and therefore the above voltages must be observed strictly. If a voltage outside the input voltage
range is used, the drive unit may be damaged. And the drive unit power input has the positive and negative
polarities. Make sure to connect the power cable to the correct polarity when connecting the batteries or the
adaptors. Connecting the cable to the incorrect polarity may cause the damage to the product.
The lens is shipped with the lens cap attached. Remove the lens cap before mounting the hood.
1 Attach the hood to the front of the lens barrel.
2 Align the index marks on the hood and lens barrel.
3 Tighten the hood lock knob.

NOTE
1. Be sure to use the lens holder when mounting the lens on a camera. Be sure to avoid applying excessive weight to
the lens mount when the lens is mounted on a lens support..
2. Attaching a lter
A 127 mm lter can be attached to the hood.
When attaching a lter to the lens body, use the Canon CL/112 mm clear lter (hereafter refered to as the CL/112
mm).
The CL/112 mm can be used together with a 127 mm lter attached to the hood.
Using a commercially available 112 mm lter other than the CL/112 mm could interfere with the hood, making it
impossible to mount the hood properly.

This mode is used for shooting small subjects at closer range than the normal minimum object distance.
At the macro position and the wide-angle end, close-ups can be as close as CN5x11:4 cm, CN7x17:10
cm from subjects.
Multi-point focus shooting
Macro button
Macro ring
As a technique that relies solely on zooming to shift the focal point within the same scene, multi-point focus shooting
employs a characteristic of macro shooting – specically, zooming changes both the focal length and the focal point.
To use this technique, shoot as follows.
1 Zoom in to a distant subject and bring it into focus by focusing as usual.
2 Zoom out to a near subject and bring it into focus with the macro ring.
3 Leaving the macro button unchanged from step 2, zoom in to the distant subject again and bring it into focus again
by focusing as usual.

Reference Information
This lens is a zoom lens for shooting movies.
• RF Cinema lenses were developed primarily for movie production, and have a color balance typical for movies. When using
this lens together with EF/RF lenses which are basically used to shoot still images, adjust the color balance (redo the white
balance etc.) as necessary.
• In general, the depth of eld becomes shallow and the focusing range becomes extremely narrow near the widest aperture
and when shooting a subject at close range. In addition, this tendency increases for lenses with longer focal lengths. When
shooting images, carefully check the focusing condition using the zoom mode of the nder or other means, and shoot a
sucient number of test images before performing focus operations.
