However, for EOS cameras with built-in flash, the cap will come in contact with the camera during the lens’ mounting/detaching, or during shift/rotation operation. The shift knob cap is recommended for use with EOS-1, EOS-1D, EOS-1Ds, and EOS 5D series.

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 whe

With the lens mounted on the camera, push the rotation lock release button towards the mount and then turn the tilt-shift mechanism. ● The rotation 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
