Instructions  
Handling Cautions  
Safety Precautions  
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 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.  
Do not leave the lens in excessive heat such as in a  
car in direct sunlight. High temperatures can cause  
the lens to malfunction.

Shooting Precautions  
The EF24-105mm f/3.5-5.6 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 per off function.  
In this state, the motor will not operate even if the camera . Threfore, users 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 buttohalfway.  
ENG-4  
 
3. During initial reset  
When the camera is ON or when the camera is turned ON by pressing the shutter button halfway down when the  
camera is OFF due to the use of the auto power off function*1, the lens performs an initial reset of the focus lens.*2  
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*3 after the  
initial reset has completed before shooting.  
*1: Not applicable to the following EOS camera models:  
EOS REBEL T5i/700D, EOS REBEL SL1/100D, EOS REBEL T4i/650D  
*2: With some cameras, the lens may perform an initial reset in order to improve lens performance even at times  
other than described in this section.  
*3: The initial reset time varies depending on camera being used.  
When using the lens with film-bed SLR cameras  
The drive speed of the focus lens will be slower then the lens is used with a digital camera.  
Images will appear out of focus when using the cainternal flash while it is charging or when zooming  
during exposure for still images.  
Even when the camera is ON, images may pper out of focus when zooming. If this occurs, press the shutter  
button halfway while zooming.  
After focusing in ONE SHOT AF mode and zooming by holding the shutter button halfway, the camera may  
indicate that the AF mode has been changed to manual focus (MF) mode.  
During continuous shooting, zooming may slow down shooting speed.  
There are some cases when users must wait approximately 1 second after zooming before the auto focus will  
function.

1. Mounting and  
2. Zooming  
Detaching the Lens  
See your camera’s instructions for details on  
mounting and detaching the lens.  
To zoo, turn the lens’ zoom ring.  
Be sure to finish zooming before focusing.  
Zooming after focusing can affect the focus.  
Blurring may temporarily occur if the zoom ring is  
quickly rotated.  
Zooming when the camera is OFF will result in  
delayed focus.  
Zooming during still image exposure will result in  
delayed focus. This causes any streaks of light  
that are captured during exposure to be blurred.  
After detaching the lens, place the lens with  
the rear end up to prevent the lens surface an
contacts from getting scratched.  
If the contacts get soiled, scratched, or ave  
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 as shown  
in the diagram, and turn clockwise. To remove it,  
reverse the order.  
ENG-7  
 
3. Setting the Focus Mode  
Quickly rotating the focusing ring may result in  
delayed focus.  
Manual focus adjustments are not possible when  
the camera is OFF.  
Please make sure that the camera is kept ON  
after bringing an image into focus. However,  
there are times when images will become out  
of focus even when the camera is ON due  
to changing the camera battery or attaching/  
deaching the lens. Please use the camera’s  
ao power off function to maintain focus when  
the amera is OFF.  
To shoot in autofocus (AF) mode, set the focus  
mode switch to AF.  
To use only manual focusing (MF), set the focus  
mode switch to MF, and focus by turning the  
focusing ring.  
After autofocusing in ONE SHOT AF mode, focus  
manually by pressing the shutter button halfway  
and turning the focusing ring. (Full-time manual  
focus)  
ENG-8  
 
4. Fixing the Zoom Ring  
The zoom ring can be fixed to keep the lens at the shortest point. This function is convenient for  
carrying a camera on a strap because it prevents the lens from extending.  
1
Rotate om ring to the  
widest pn (24 mm).  
2
Slide the zoom ring lock  
lever in the direction  
indicated by the arrow.  
To release the zoom ring, slide  
the zoom ring lock lever in the  
direction opposite to the arrow.  
The zoom ring can only be locked at maximum wide angle.

grasp the rim of the hood to turn it.  
ENG-10  
 
6.  
Image Stabilizer  
You can use the image stabilizer in AF or MF  
mode.  
This function provides optimal image stabilization  
depending on shooting conditions (such as  
shooting still subjects and following shots).  
The Image Stabilizer cannot compensate for a  
blurred shot caused by a subject that moved.  
The Image Stabilizer may not be fully effective  
if you shoot from a violently shaking vehicle or  
other transportation.  
The Image Stabilizer consumes more power  
than normal shooting, resulting in fewer shots  
and a shorter movie shooting time.  
Wen shooting a still subject, it compensates for  
caera shake in all directions.  
It compensates for vertical camera shake during  
following shots in a horizontal direction, and  
compensates for horizontal camera shake during  
following shots in a vertical direction.  
When you use a tripod, the Image Stabilizer  
should be turned off to save battery power.  
Even with a monopod, the Image Stabilizer will  
be as effective as during hand-held shooting.  
However, depending on the shooting environment,  
the Image Stabilizer effect may be less effective.  
1
Set the STABILIZER switch to ON.  
If you are not going to use the image stabilizer  
function, set the switch to OFF.  
2
When you press the shutter button halfway,  
the Image Stabilizer will start operating.  
The image stabilizer function also operates when the  
lens is used with an Extension Tube EF12 II or EF25 II.  
Make sure the image in the viewfinder is stable,  
then press the shutter button the rest of the way  
down to take the picture.  
If you set the camera’s Custom Function to  
change the assigned button to operate the AF,  
the Image Stabilizer will operate when you press  
the newly assigned AF button.
