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.

●●Do not leave the lens in excessive heat such as in a car in direct sunlight. High temperatures can cause the lens to malfunction.

Safety Precautions

●●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.

●●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.

Shooting Precautions

The EF-S55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS STM utilizes a stepping motor that drives the focus lens. The motor also controls the focus lens during zooming.

1. When the camera is OFF

The motor does not operate while the camera is OFF or when the camera is OFF due to the use of the auto power off function. Therefore, users must be aware of the following points.

●● Manual focus adjustments are not possible.

●●During zooming, delayed focus will occur.

2. When the lens is in sleep mode

If not operated for a certain period of time, this lens will enter sleep mode in order to save power. Sleep mode

differs from when the camera is OFF due to the use of the auto power off function. In this state, the motor will not operate even if the camera is ON. Therefore,COPYusers must be aware of the following points.

●●Manual focus adjustments are not possible.

●●During zooming, delayed focus will occur.

●●To exit sleep mode, press the shutter button halfway.camera is OFF due to the use of the auto power off function*1, the lens performs an initial reset of the focus lens.

●●Although the image in the viewfinder will appear out of focus during the initial reset, this does not mean that the lens has malfunctioned.

●●Although the shutter can be released during the initial reset, users must wait approximately 1 second*2 after the initial reset has completed before shooting.

*1: Applicable to the following EF-S lens compatible EOS cameras:

EOS 7D, EOS 60D, EOS 60Da, EOS 50D, EOS 40D, EOS 30D, EOS 20D, EOS 20Da, EOS REBEL T3i/600D, EOS REBEL T2i/550D, EOS REBEL T1i/500D, EOS REBEL XSi/450D, EOS REBEL T3/1100D, EOS REBEL XS/1000D, EOS DIGITAL REBEL XTi/400D DIGITAL, EOS DIGITAL REBEL XT/350D DIGITAL, EOS DIGITAL REBEL/300D DIGITAL

*2: The initial reset time varies depending on camera being used.
