Using the Built-in Flash • When using an EX-series Speedlite, press the built-in flash back into the camera before mounting the external flash. • When using the built-in flash, keep at least 1 m/3.3 ft away from the subject. Otherwise the lens barrel may partially obstruct the flash coverage and cause part of the image to look dark. • When using the built-in flash, detach any hood attahed to the lens. A lens hood will partially obstruct the flash coverage. • When a super telephoto lens or fast, large-aperture lens is attached, the built-in flash coverage might be obstructed. • The built-in flash's coverage is effective with lens focal lengths as short as 18mm. Lens focal lengths shorter than 18mm will result in flash shot having a dark periphery. •" " and < > will be displayed in the viewfinder while the built-in flash is being charged.

Using the Built-in Flash
C.Fn-05-3 disables the built-in flash from firing. (

C.Fn-15-1 enables 2nd-curtain sync with the built-in flash. (

With C.Fn-03-1, the flash sync speed will be fixed at 1/200 sec. in the <

In <

> mode, if you set the shutter speed faster than 1/200 sec., the
camera will automatically reset it to 1/200 sec.
AF flash exposure is always based on the aperture value at the time the shot is taken,
and controlled by E-TTL autoflash linked to the active AF point and weighted for the
main subject.
If the camera finds it difficult to focus, the AF-assist lamp (
p.39) will light automati-
cally (except <
