HSetting the Flash Coverage and Using the Wide Panel

The flash coverage can be set to match the lens focal length from 24mm to 105mm. The flash coverage can be set automatically or manually. Also, with the built-in wide panel, the flash coverage will be compatible with ultra wide-angle lenses as short as 14mm.

Press the <G> button.

Press the <9> button to change the flash coverage.

When the flash coverage is set automatically, <d> is not displayed.

If you set the flash coverage manually, make sure it covers the lens focal length so that the picture will not have a dark periphery.

Using the Wide Panel

Pull out the wide panel and place it over the flash head as shown.

The <G> button will not work.

The flash coverage will not be compatible with the EF15mm f/2.8 Fisheye lens.

For the effective lens focal length (or crop factor), refer to the camera’s instruction manual.

If you use bounce flash with the wide panel in place, the entire display on the LCD panel will blink as a warning. Since the subject will be illuminated by both the bounce flash and direct flash, it will look unnatural.

Pull out the wide panel gently. Using excessive force may detach the wide panel.
