Instructions

ENG-1
Canon’s TS-E lenses are tilt-shift lenses
designed for EOS cameras. The tilt-shift
mechanism enables photographers to control
the depth of field and the area photographed
and to correct image distortion, making it
possible to take sophisticated pictures that
cannot be shot using a conventional lens.
●To ensure that you make the most of the TS-E lens
functionality, it is recommended that you use it with
an EOS camera with 100% viewfinder visibility
(EOS-1, EOS-1D or EOS-1Ds series) and use the
laser matte with grid focusing screen Ec-D and a
tripod.
●On EOS cameras with a built-in flash, some partial
restrictions may apply to the shift and rotation
functions.
●On EOS cameras equipped with a grip for vertical
shooting, some partial restrictions may apply to the
shift and rotation functions.
Features
1. The lens can be tilted up to ±8° and shifted up
to ±11mm.
2. The tilt and shift functions can be used singly
or in combination.
3. The lens can be rotated to change the tilt or
shift direction.
Conventions used in this instruction
Warning to prevent lens or camera malfunction
or damage.

aSafety Precautions
1. Do not look at the sun or a bright light source
through the lens or camera. Doing so could result in
loss of vision. Looking at the sun directly through the
lens is especially hazardous.
2. Whether it is attached to the camera or not, do not
leave the lens under the sun without the lens cap
attached. This is to prevent the lens from concentrating
the sun’s rays, which could cause a fire.
aHandling Cautions
If the lens is taken from a cold environment into a
warm one, condensation may develop on the lens
surface and internal parts. To prevent condensation in
this case, first put the lens into an airtight plastic bag
before taking it from a cold to warm environment. Then
take out the lens after it has warmed gradually. Do the
same when taking the lens from a warm environment into
a cold one.

1. Mounting and Detaching the Lens
Focus a TS-E lens by turning the focusing ring.
(Shots cannot be taken using the auto focus.)
See your camera’s instructions for details on
mounting and detaching the lens.
2. Focusing
●When mounting or detaching the lens, always
ensure that the tilt and shift scales are set to the
“0” position.
●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
fingerprints on them, corrosion or faulty
connections can result. The camera and lens
may not operate properly.
●If the contacts get soiled or have fingerprints on
them, clean them with a soft cloth.
●If you remove the lens, cover it with the dust
cap. To attach it properly, align the lens mount
index and the index of the dust cap, and turn
clockwise. To remove it, reverse the order.
●After using tilt or shift, readjust the focus.
●The distance scale is only valid when the tilt
scale is set to the “0” position.

ENG-6
3. Tilt Function
Tilting inclines the lens relative to the image plane. When the tilt scale is set to the “0” position, the
focusing and imaging planes are parallel. However, tilting puts the focusing plane at an angle to the
imaging plane.
●Example 1 ●Example 2
To shoot so that all of an extensive subject is in focus, you must normally use a small aperture to
obtain a large depth of field. But tilting allows you to keep all of the subject in focus even when there
is insufficient depth of field (Example 1). Or, by tilting in the opposite direction, you can focus on a
specific part of the subject (Example 2).

ENG-7
Turn the tilt lock knob in the
direction of the arrow to lock
the amount of tilt for the
shot.
Loosen the tilt lock knob by
turning it in the direction of
the arrow.
Turn the tilt knob to adjust
the amount of tilt. Focus the
shot by turning the focusing
ring.
Using Tilt
●When you tilt the lens, sharp portions of the tilt mechanism are exposed and care should be taken to avoid
touching these portions.
●If you use the tilt and shift functions on the TS-E24mm f/3.5L at the same time, only use them within the
area of the light-gray tilt scale settings. Tilting the lens to other settings may cause vignetting.
However, if the tilt function is used alone, none of the tilt scale settings cause vignetting.

ENG-8
4. Shift Function
Shifting moves the optical axis of the lens in parallel off the center of the imaging plane.
Shift can be used to good effect in the situations shown below.
●If you photograph a subject such as a
building with a normal lens, the top of
the building tapers away. But by placing
the camera parallel to the building and
shifting the lens, you can correct this
tapering effect.
●When you are shooting a reflective
subject, you can move the camera to a
position where the camera does not
appear in the shot and then use shift to
take the picture. This lets you keep the
camera out of the shot without having
to change the shot composition.

ENG-9
Using Shift
Turn the shift lock knob in
the direction of the arrow to
lock the amount of shift for
the shot.
Loosen the shift lock knob
by turning it in the direction
of the arrow.
Turn the shift knob to adjust
the amount of shift. Focus
the shot by turning the
focusing ring.
●When you shift the lens, sharp portions of the shift mechanism are exposed and care should be taken to
avoid touching these portions.
●If you use the tilt and shift functions on the TS-E24mm f/3.5L at the same time, only use them within the
area of the light-gray shift scale settings. Shifting the lens to other settings may cause vignetting.
With large amounts of shift, the amounts of peripheral light at the top and bottom or left and right sides of the
screen may differ, so shooting with a small aperture is recommended.

ENG-10
5. Rotation
The rotation function enables you to change the direction of tilt or
shift by rotating the tilt-shift mechanism.
With the lens mounted on the camera, push the rotation lock release
button towards the mount and then turn the tilt-shift mechanism.
●The mechanism can be rotated through ±90°. The lens clicks every 30° and
locks in place in the 90° position.
●When rotating the lens, set the tilt and shift scales to the “0” position.
●Note that rotating the tilt-shift mechanism quickly while pressing on the
rotation lock release button may cause the shift lock knob to strike your
fingers.

ENG-11
The depth of field is the distance in front of and
behind the plane of focus on the subject that
appears sharp. The depth of field is indicated by
the area between the depth-of-field scale lines
below the distance scale. Numbers in the scale
are in F values, and for example, if the shooting
distance is 1.5m and the aperture is f/8, the
sharp area will extend from about 1m to 3m.
The infrared index corrects the focus setting
when using monochrome infrared film. Focus on
the subject, then adjust the distance setting by
moving the focusing ring to the corresponding
infrared index mark.
6. Depth-of-Field Scale
(TS-E24mm f/3.5L)
7. Infrared Index
(TS-E24mm f/3.5L)
Some EOS cameras cannot use infrared film. See
the instructions for your EOS camera.
●The depth-of-field scale is only valid when the
tilt scale is set to the “0” position.
●The depth-of-field scale is an approximate
indicator.

ENG-12
8. TS-E Tripod Adapter (Sold Separately) 9. Exposure
With some camera models, the tilt, shift and
rotation functions can no longer be used when
the camera is mounted directly on a tripod.
When this happens, fit the optional TS-E tripod
adapter into the tripod mount socket on the
camera before mounting the camera on the
tripod.
Shots can be taken using AE (automatic
exposure) as long as the tilt and shift scales are
set to the “0” position.
The use of AE is not recommended when the
lens is tilted or shifted as exposure errors may
result. It is recommended that you use the
exposure values when the tilt and shift scales
are set to the “0” position as a guide and then
take the shot with as many exposure settings as
possible.

ENG-13
10. Hoods
The EW-75BII, EW-79BII and EW-65III hoods can keep unwanted light out of the lens, and also
protect the lens from rain, snow, and dust.
Attach the hood using the following procedure.
