Handling Precautions
Caution
If the adapter is taken from a cold environment
into a warm one, condensation may develop on
the outside surface and internal parts. To prevent
condensation in this case, first put the adapter into
an airtight plastic bag before taking it from a cold
to warm environment. Then take out the adapter
after it has warmed gradually. Do the same when
taking the adapter from a warm environment into a
cold one.
●
This is a precision instrument. Do not drop it,
subject it to shock, or attempt to dismantle it
yourself.
When carrying a lens or a camera to which the
adapter is attached, always carry it by the lens/
camera body.
Do not leave the adapter in excessive heat such as
in a car in direct sunlight. High temperatures can
cause the adapter to malfunction.
Remove the battery when you are not using the
adapter. Fluid leakage can cause the adapter to
malfunction.

Shooting Precautions
When using the power zoom, the lens will stop
before the limit at both the wide and telephoto
ends. The available focal length range is limited.
The focal length range where the power zoom can
be used differs for each lens. Refer to “Materials”
on Page 10 for details.
●
Attaching the camera to a tripod may cause
interference with the adapter. If this is the case,
please use the separately-sold TS-E Lens Tripod
Adapter.

● Use the speed level switch to set the speed of the
power zoom.
1. The zoom mode switch can be set to either Power
Zoom [PZ] or Manual Zoom [MZ].
● Setting this to [SLOW] provides a slow zoom, suitable
for movie photography.
2. To zoom using power zooming, set the switch to
Power Zoom [PZ].
Setting this to [FAST] provides a faster zoom than
[SLOW].
3. To zoom by directly turning the zoom ring on the
lens, set the switch to Manual Zoom [MZ].
The indicator lamp goes off when set to Manual
Zoom [MZ].
Do not force the zoom ring on the lens when using
the Power Zoom [PZ] zoom mode. It can cause
damage to the lens.
ENG-8
Using Power Zoom
6
If a foreign object is caught between the lens’s
zoom ring and the adapter while power zoom is
being used, it will stop after the motor drives it to
expel the object. You cannot use Power Zoom
while the jam detector is pressed.
●
When using Power Zoom from the telephoto end
to the wide end, take care that you do not get
your fingers caught between the adapter and the
tip of the lens or the lens hood.
The motor noise may be recorded when using
Power Zoom during video shooting. Setting the
speed level to [SLOW] will reduce the motor
noise.
There may be some slight sounds from the
adapter when the camera is turned on or wakes
up from Auto Power Off.
While using the zoom lever, do not apply force
in the direction where the adapter parts from the
lens. It can cause abnormal sounds or damage.
●
●
Use the zoom lever to use the power zoom. Sliding it to
[W] will zoom the lens out (wide end) and sliding it to [T]
will zoom the lens in (telephoto end).
The zoom speed will change depending on how much
the zoom lever is moved. Refer to “Materials” on Page
10 for details of the zoom speeds.
You can use power zooms by remote control when
using this adapter. Refer to “Materials” on Page 11
for details of remote control.
