For Best Results with Your Canon EOS Camera Use Original Canon EF Lenses.
Each EOS camera body and each EF Lens has its own built-in microcomputer. These microcomputers store a range of special data to ensure the smooth operation of bodies and EF lenses which support two-way digital
communications between each part to allow exchange of information. Since the EOS System’s market launch in 1987, functions have been added and improved on a continuing basis, such as Optical Image Stabilizer to
some lenses, speeding up the AF function, increasing the number of focusing points, and the addition of the Eye Controlled Focus™ Function. As the system’s range of functions has evolved, the nature of the basic
system of communications between lens and body has evolved as well, ensuring that complete compatibility is maintained. This process of evolution will continue in the future with the addition of more new specifications,
resulting in still further gains in reliability.
Accordingly, in order to realize the maximum performance of the EOS System and thereby achieve among the highest possible photographic
quality, we recommend that you use Canon EF lenses and Canon brand accessories, since they are designed and manufactured to match the special qualities of your EOS camera.

Drop-in Gelatin Filter Holder II
Up to three gelatin filters can be
placed in these holders. To use, insert a
cut piece of gelatin film between the
holder’s filter frame and pressure
clip, and screw on to the lens.
Loupe 4x
Designed for viewing 35mm film frames at high
magnifications, these loupes use a high-per-
formance lens system that help to eliminate all
aberration and distortion. They offer diopter
adjustment of -4 to +1 dpt, and include an eyecup,
hood and case.
Gelatin Filter Holder System
This convenient holder system allows the use of
commercially available square filters without the
need for cutting. The holder attaches to the lens
through an adapter that fits the filter diameter.
A special hood is available for use with the system.
Use with 3-inch square type III and 4-inch square
type IV gelatin filters. Gelatin filters can be used
with most EF lenses.
Extension Tube EF 25 II & EF 12 II
These close-up accessories are placed between
the camera body and lens to help enable high-
magnification photography. Eight electronic contact
points allow communication between the camera
and lens to continue as usual. The magnification
differs according to the lens, but for standard
zoom lenses it is about 0.3x to 0.5x for the EF
12 and 0.7x or more for the EF 25. By using both
tubes effectively, the choice of magnifications
can be greatly extended. However, for best
results, manual focusing is recommended.
Circular Polarizing Filter PL-CB/PL-C
Polarizing filters enhance picture quality by
blocking harmful reflected light. Use it to reduce
light reflections from glass and water surfaces or
to improve color saturation. Simple to use,
these filters polarize light circularly, rather
than linearly, so they do not interfere with
autofocus or TTL light metering.
DROP-IN
— For use with lenses using rear-mounted
drop-in filters, this polarizing filter can be rotated
from the outside without removing the holder
from the lens, helping enable precise control.
Softmat No. 1 & No. 2
Softmat filters mildly soften the focus for flattering
portraits and dreamy landscapes. These filters
utilize the effect of diffraction, which occurs
between light passing through the transparent
part and light passing through the coated part.
Use Softmat No. 1 filter for a gentle soft focus
effect, and Softmat No. 2 for a stronger effect.
Lens Cases and Lens Hoods
These functional, rugged cases are indispensable
to help protect lenses. Lens hoods help prevent
unwanted glare from affecting your photographs.
Haze (UV-1)
The Haze (UV-1) filter absorbs ultraviolet light
and is most effective on sunny days for cutting
haze out of the shot.
Drop-in Screw Filter Holder
A holder for screw-type filters, for use with
rear-mounted drop-in filters.
Close-up Lens 250D/500D/500
The 250D/500D series incorporates double-
element achromatic design for maximum optical
performance. These screw-in lenses are used to
provide a shorter minimum focusing distance
with no loss of light. Each lens is optimized for
a particular focal length. Manual focus is recom-
mended with these lenses.
