198 The built-in flash and external Speedlite settings can be set with the camera’s menu. You can use the camera’s menu to set the external Speedlite function settings only if an EX-series Speedlite compatible with this function is attached. The setting procedure is the same as when setting a camera menu function. Select [Flash control]. Under the [z 1] tab, select [Flash control ], then press < 0>. The flash control screen will appear. Normally, set this to [Enable ]. If [Disable] is set, neither the built- in flash nor the external Speedlite will fire. This is useful when you want to use only the flash’s AF-assist beam. 3 Setting the Flash N [Flash firing] Even if [Flash firing] is set to [Disable ], if focus is difficult to achieve in low light, the built-in flash may still fire a series of flashes (AF-assist beam, p.100).
199 3 Setting the Flash N With [Built-in flash func. setting ] and [External flash func. setting ], you can set the functions in the t able below. The functions displayed under [ External flash func. setting ] vary depending on the Speedlite model. Select [ Built-in flash func. setting ] or [External flash func. setting ]. The flash functions will be displayed. The highlighted functions can be selected and set. [Built-in flash func. setting] and [External flash func. setting] Functions * Regarding [ FEB] (Flash exposure bracketing), [ Zoom], and [ Wireless func. ], refer to the Speedlite’s instruction manual compatible with the function.

Use the Speedlite to set the function. • Set flash sync speed to 1/100 or less. • High-speed synchronization is not possible. • Group flash is not possible. The camera may not be able to set some of the functions of [ Flash mode ], [Zoom ], and [MULTI flash ], depending on the Speedlite model used. In such a case, use the Speedlite to set the functions.
3 Setting the Flash N 200 Flash mode When using an external Speedlite, y ou can select the flash mode to suit your desired flash shooting. [E-TTL II ] is the standard mode of EX-series Speedlites for automatic flash shooting. [Manual flash ] enables you to set the flash output yourself. This is for advanced users. Regarding other flash modes, refer to the instruction manual of a Speedlite compatible with the functions. Shutter synchronization Normally, set this to [ 1st curtain] so that the flas h fires immediately after the exposure starts. If [ 2nd curtain ] is set, the flash will fire right before the shutter closes. When this is combined with a slow shutter speed, you can create a trail of light such as from car headlights at night with a more natural feel. With E-TTL II (auto flash exposure), the flash will be fired twice in a row: once when you press the shutter button completely and once right before the end of the exposure. Also, if the shutter speed is 1/30 sec. or fa ster, first-curtain synchronization will be applied automatically. If an external Speedlite is attached, you can also select [ High-speed synchronization ] (e ). For details, refer to the Speedlite’s instruction manual. Flash exposure compensation See “Flash Exposure Compensation” on page 117. E-TTL II flash metering For normal flash exposures, set it to [Evaluative]. [ Average] is for advanced users. As with an exter nal Speedlite, the metering is averaged for the entire area. Depending on the scene, flash exposure compensation may be necessary.
