External Speedlites EOS-dedicated, EX-series Speedlites Basically operates like a built-in flash for easy operation. When an EX-series Speedlite (sold separately) is attached to the camera, almost all the autoflash control is done by the camera. In other words, it is like a high-output flash attached externally in place of the built-in flash. For detailed instructions, see the EX-series Speedlite's instruction manual. This camera is a Type-A camera that can use all the features of EX-series Speedlites. Shoe-mount Speedlites Macro Lites With an EX-series Speedlite not compatible with flash function settings (p.115), only [Flash exp. comp] and [E-TTL II] can be set for [External flash func. setting]. (Certain EX-series Speedlites also enable [Shutter sync.] to be set.) If the flash metering mode is set to TTL autoflash with the Speedlite's Custom Function, the flash will fire at full output only. Canon Speedlites other than the EX-series With an EZ/E/EG/ML/TL-series Speedlite set in TTL or A-TTL autoflash mode, the flash can be fired at full output only. Set the camera's shooting mode to (manual exposure) or (aperture-priority AE) and adjust the aperture setting before shooting. When using a Speedlite which has manual flash mode, shoot in the manual flash mode. 129
