English Instructions
Thank you for purchasing a Canon product.
Canon EF28-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM is a highperformance lens developed for EOS cameras that
incorporates an Image Stabilizer function.
● “IS” stands for Image Stabilizer.
● “USM” stands for Ultrasonic Motor.
a Handling 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.
Features
1. The Image Stabilizer gives the equivalent effect of a
shutter speed two stops* faster.
2. High-magnification zoom from 28 mm wide-angle to
135 mm telephoto.
3. Ultrasonic motor (USM) for fast, quiet autofocus.
4. Manual focusing is available after the subject comes
into focus in autofocus mode (ONE SHOT AF).
5. Great close-ups at 0.5 m/1.6 ft at all focal lengths.
* Based on [1/focal length] second.
Generally, it requires a shutter speed [1/focal length]
second or faster to prevent camera shake.

a Safety 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.

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.

1. Mounting and Detaching the Lens
See your camera’s instructions for details on mounting and detaching the lens.
• 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.
