Frequently Asked Questions
1 ) What is the filter thread of the Canon 135mm f2 EF lens?
The Canon EF 135mm f2 lens has a 72mm filter thread.
2 ) What is the "focus range limiter"?
Thanks to a switch on the lens you are able to set the focusing distance range, which diretly affects the autofocus time. The 2 options are 3' to infinity or 5.2' to infinity. So, let's say your subject is 6' from you, by choosing 5.2' to infinity will be your best option if auto focus time is of concern. The focus range limiter will basically tell your lens not to try focus on anything that is closer than 5.2'.
