You can adjust the zooming "touch" (resistance) as needed by holding the - Canon EF 28-300mm f/3.5-5.6L IS USM | EF28-300mm F3.5-5.6L IS USM Instruction Ma - Page 8
you are not going to use the image stabilizer function, set the switch to . Select the stabilizer mode. • MODE 1: Corrects vibrations in all directions. It is mainly effective for shooting still subjects. • MODE 2: It compensates for vertical camera shake during following shots in a horizontal - Canon EF 28-300mm f/3.5-5.6L IS USM | EF28-300mm F3.5-5.6L IS USM Instruction Ma - Page 9
