Using EOS-Dedicated, External Speedlites With EX-series Speedlites An EOS-dedicated, EX-series Speedlite (optional) makes flash photography as easy as normal shooting.You can easily do the flash operations below. For detailed procedures, see the Speedlite's instruction manual. ¡E-TTL II Autoflash E-TTL II is a new autoflash exposure system incorporating improved flash exposure control and lens focusing distance information, making it more precise than the previous E-TTL (evaluative flash metering with preflash) system. The camera can execute E-TTL II autoflash with any EX-series Speedlite. • High-Speed Sync (FP flash) With high-speed sync, you can set a sync speed faster than 1/200 sec. • FE (Flash Exposure) Lock Press the camera's button to lock the flash exposure at the desired part of the subject. • Flash Exposure Compensation In the same way as normal exposure compensation, you can set exposure compensation for flash. The flash exposure compensation amount can be set with the camera up to ±2 stops in 1/3-stop increments. With Speedlites which you can set the flash exposure compensation, it can be set up to ±3 stops in 1/3-stop increments. • FEB (Flash Exposure Bracketing) The flash output is changed automatically for three successive shots (only with FEB-compatible Speedlites). Set flash exposure bracketing up to ±3 stops in 1/ 3-stop increments. • E-TTL II Wireless Autoflash with Multiple Speedlites As with wired, multiple Speedlites, wireless E-TTL II autoflash with multiple Speedlites provides all the above features. Since connection cords are unnecessary, flexible and sophisticated lighting setups are possible (only with wireless-compatible Speedlites). About EZ/E/EG/ML/TL-series Speedlites The flash cannot be fired with an EZ/E/EG/ML/TL-series Speedlite set in the TTL or A-TTL autoflash mode. Use the Speedlite's manual flash mode instead if provided. 101
