Using an EOS-dedicated Speedlite

The camera is compatible with the EX/EZ/E/EG/ML/TL-series EOS- dedicated Speedlites.

For details on operating the Speedlite, refer to the Speedlite’s instruction booklet.

Using an EX-series Speedlite

With E-TTL II autoflash (AF point-linked, evaluative flash metering with preflash), you can easily take natural-looking flash pictures centering on the subject in the same way as normal AE shooting.

Using an EZ/E/EG/ML/TL-series Speedlite

With A-TTL/TTL autoflash (AF point-linked, off-the-film flash metering), you can easily take flash pictures in the same way as normal AE shooting.

About 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.

• Before attaching an external Speedlite, retract the built-in flash.

•If you use a flash unit (with multiple contacts) dedicated to another camera brand or a high-voltage flash, the camera may not work properly or malfunction may result.

• If focus is difficult to achieve, the EOS-dedicated Speedlite (one with a built- in AF-assist light) will automatically emit the AF-assist light (except in <I> <P> modes).

•With regard to EOS-dedicated Speedlites, this is a Type A camera (compatible with E-TTL II autoflash).
