    Solution

    Attaching a lens filter to the camera protects the lens and allows you to shoot with various effects. To attach a lens filter, you will need Filter Adapter FA-DC67A (sold separately).

    Filter Adapter FA-DC67A
    • Adapter required when mounting a 67 mm filter.



    Canon Lens Filter (67 mm dia.)
    • Protects the lens and enables a variety of shooting effects.



    IMPORTANT
    • Camera accessories are sold separately. Note that availability varies by area, and some accessories may no longer be available.
    • A lens filter and lens cap cannot be attached to the camera at the same time.

    Using Lens Filters (Sold Separately)

    1. Make sure the camera is off.

    2. Align the notches on the camera and the filter adapter and turn the adapter in the direction of the arrow until locked.
    • To remove the filter adapter, turn it in the opposite direction.



    3. Turn the filter in the direction of the arrow to attach it to the camera.
    • Make sure not to attach the filter too tightly. Doing so could prevent removal of the filter and damage the camera.


    IMPORTANT
    • We recommend the use of genuine Canon filters (67 mm dia.).
    • When not using auto focus to shoot, set the manual focus option [Safety MF] to [On].
    • If you use the flash with the filter adapter attached, portions of the image may appear darker.
    • When using the filter adapter, be sure to use only one filter at a time. Attaching multiple filters may cause the attachments to fall off and become damaged.
    • Do not grip the filter adapter tightly.
    • Remove the filter adapter when not using a filter.
    NOTE
    • The filter adapter and a lens hood cannot be attached to the camera at the same time.
