Canon EOS Rebel T5 1200D User Guide

External Speedlites
 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  (manual exposure) or 
 (aperture-priority AE) and adjust the aperture setting before 
shooting.
 When using a Speedlite that has manual flash mode, shoot in the 
manual flash mode.
Sync Speed
The camera can synchronize with compact, non-Canon flash units at 
1/200 sec. or slower shutter speeds. Use a sync speed slower than 
1/200 sec.
Be sure to test the flash unit beforehand to make sure it synchronizes 
properly with the camera.
Canon Speedlites Other Than the EX-series
Using Non-Canon Flash Units
 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 may 
not fire.

With a commercially-available Eye-Fi card already set up, you can 
automatically transfer captured images to a computer or upload them to 
an online service via a wireless LAN.
The image transfer is a function of the Eye-Fi card. For instructions on 
how to set up and use the Eye-Fi card or to troubleshoot any image 
transfer problems, refer to the Eye-Fi card’s instruction manual or 
contact the card manufacturer.
The camera is not guaranteed to support Eye-Fi card functions 
(including wireless transfer). In case of an issue with an Eye-Fi 
card, please check with the card manufacturer. Also note that 
approval is required to use Eye-Fi cards in many countries or 
regions. Without approval, use of the card is not permitted. If it 
is unclear whether the card has been approved for use in your 
area, please check with the card manufacturer.

2Select [Eye-Fi settings].
 Under the [51] tab, select [Eye-Fi 
settings], then press .
 This menu is displayed only when an

Transmission status icon
Cautions for Using Eye-Fi Cards If “J” is displayed, an error occurred while retrieving the card 
information. Turn the camera’s power switch off, and on again.
 Even if [51: Eye-Fi trans.] is set to [Disable], it may still transmit a 
signal. In hospitals, airports, and other places where wireless 
transmissions are prohibited, remove the Eye-Fi card from the camera.
 If the image transfer does not function, check the Eye-Fi card and 
computer settings. For details, refer to the card’s instruction manual.
 Depending on the wireless LAN’s connection conditions, the image 
transfer may take longer or it may be interrupted.
 Because of the transmission function, the Eye-Fi card may become hot.
 The battery power will be consumed faster.
 During the image transfer, auto power off will not take effect.
 If you insert a wireless LAN card other than an Eye-Fi card, [51: Eye-Fi 
settings] will not appear on the menu. Also, the transmission status icon 
 will not appear on the LCD monitor.
