External Speedlites
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 <a> (manual exposure) or <f> (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.
Using Non-Canon Flash Units
Sync Speed
The camera can synchronize with compact, non-Canon flash units at 1/ 200 sec. or slower. Be sure to test the flash unit beforehand to make sure it synchronizes properly with the camera.
Cautions for Live View shooting
A non-Canon flash will not fire during Live View shooting.
If the camera is used with a flash unit or flash accessory dedicated to another camera brand, the camera may not operate properly and malfunction may result.
Do not attach a high-voltage flash unit on the camera’s hot shoe. It might not fire.
