The Variable Aperture AE control will not operate, but you can manually adjust the aperture ring of the lens. A basic exposure guide to follow for bright sunlight (with distinct shadows) is to make a fraction representing the shutter speed needed at f / 16 by putting a "one" over the film's ASA rating. With a film of ASA 100, use 1/100 sec.
You can attach extension tube EF12 II or EF25 II for magnified shots. The shooting distance and magnification are shown below. Camera-to-Subject Distance ( mm ) Magnification Near Far Near Far EF 12 II 2870 13384 0.16x 0.03x EF 25 II 2424 6549 0.20x 0.07x
Tips on Using the Image Stabilizer The Image Stabilizer also operates when the lens is used with extension tube EF12 II or EF 25 II or the extender EF1.4x II or EF 2x II. Pictures may look distorted after being taken depending on the camera, but this doesn't affect shooting. 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.
Avoid direct sunlight when unloading the film Keep your exposed cartridges in a cool dray and shady place and have them processed as soon as possible Do not leave the same roll of film in your camera for months on end, since black and white film may become fogged and color film may experience a definite color-shift
