  • Page 2 Thank you for purchasing a Canon product. The Canon TS-E50mm f/2.8L MACRO, Canon TS-E90mm f/2.8L MACRO, and Canon TS-E135mm f/4L MACRO are tilt-shift lenses* designed for EOS cameras that allow macro shooting up to 0.5 times magnification. Camera Firmware Please use the latest version of firmware with the camera in use. For details on whether the firmware is the latest version or not, and for details on updating the firmware, please check the Canon website.
  • Page 3 Safety Precautions Precautions to ensure that the camera is used safely. Read these precautions thoroughly. Make sure all details are observed in order to prevent risks and injury to the user and other people. Warning Details pertaining to risks that may result in death or serious injury. Do not look at the sun or a bright light source through the lens or single-lens reflex camera.

  • Page 10 Canon TS-E50mm f/2.8L MACRO, Canon TS-E90mm f/2.8L MACRO, and Canon TS-E135mm f/4L MACRO have the following features. Range of tilt is ±8.5° for TS-E50mm f/2.8L MACRO, and ±10° for TS-E90mm f/2.8L MACRO and TS-E135mm f/4L MACRO. Range of shift is ±12 mm.
  • Page 11 TS-E MACRO Lens Features Before mounting or detaching the lens, or turning the lens for rotation or TS rotation, always lock the lens in a non-tilted and non-shifted position. For how to lock the lens in a non-tilted and non-shifted position, see p.16, p.18, and p.20. If using Digital Photo Professional to perform lens correction (lens aberration correction, Digital Lens Optimizer, etc.)*, correction may not be performed adequately depending on the amount of tilt or shift, and on the rotation or TS rotation setting.
