External Speedlites

EOS-dedicated, EX-series Speedlites

The basic operation is simple.

When an EX-series Speedlite (sold separately) is attached to the camera, almost all the automatic flash control is done by the camera. In other words, it is almost the same as using a built-in flash.

For detailed instructions, refer to the EX-series Speedlite’s instruction manual. This camera is a Type-A camera that can use all the features of EX-series Speedlites.
