External Speedlites EOS-dedicated, EX-seriesSpeedlites Basically operates like a built-in flash for easy operation. When an EX-series Speedlite is attached to the camera, almost all the autoflash control is done by the camera. In other words, it is like a highoutput flash attached externally in place of the built-in flash. For detailed instructions, see the EX-series Speedlite's instruction manual. This camera is a Type-A camera that can use all the features of EX-series Speedlites.
External Speedlites Canon Speedlites other than the EX-series • With an EZ/E/EG/ML/TL-series Speedlite set in the 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 shoot. e When using a Speedlite which has manual flash mode, shoot in the manual flash mode. • With an EX-series Speedlite set to TTL autoflash with the flash's Custom Function, the flash will fire at full output only.

Taking too many blurry pictures? Canon IS * Lenses are the solution' I 01 I
Nice shot! Or is it? When you enlarge your image, the print looks fuzzy. Frustrating! But a common experience. In most cases, this accidental blurring is caused by camera shake - especially when shooting with a telephoto lens or at slow shutter speeds in dark places. Even if you try to stay still, the camera isn't perfectly steady in your hands when the shutter button is pressed. But now there's a great solution: Canon IS * Lenses. For beautifully clear, blur-free photos. With ease.
Day or night, indoors or outdoors.

IS benefits When does camera shake tend to happen, and what causes it to occur? Perhaps you've encountered blurred Images when enlarging pictures. photos tho look fine in smaller postcard sizes appear quite fuzzy at greater size. In foci, camera shake happens more frequently than you d think. There are several reasons for occidental blurring.
• Camera hakE'. How do Canon IS Lenses repress blurring caused by camera shake? Canon IS Lenses detect camera shake with a pair Image Stabilizer Parallel Movement Principle of built-in gyro sensors, shifting lens components in 1. Lens When still the direction of the vibration to counteract it and Capturing element prevent blurring. When the shutter button is pressed I~ halfway while the IS function is on, compensation for camera shake is activated in just 0.5 seconds.
In-lens image stabilizer design benefits Why is each individual lens optimized for shake correction? Each Canon IS Lens has a unique optical design for specialized performance. So, Canon's optical correction systems and control mechanisms are customized for effective positioning in each lens model. Canon builds these mechanisms into the lenses to ensure that the optical correction system is optimized for each individual lens.
• Corpero shoke _ How does a stable viewfinder image help you take better picture? Looking into the viewfinder while focusing and framing is essential to SLR shooting, so a stable viewfinder image is crucial. Canon IS Lenses correct for camera shake by shifting certain optical components in inverse relation to the lens movement, maintaining the position of incoming light rays on the film or capturing elements.
In-lens image stabilizer design benefits \ Improve your framing accuracy! Blurry viewfinder images lead to framing errors, so you can inadvertently cut off important details, especially when using a telephoto zoom lens. With Canon IS Lenses such framing errors are a thing of the past. Canon's in-lens image stabilizers enable accurate framing when you fill the frame with part of your subject. Since the viewfinder image is blur-free, you can check every detail and make subtle framing adjustments.
• Camero shake_ Capture fleeting photo opportunities! Concentrating on your subject is difficult if the viewfinder image is blurred. When you lose concentration, you tend to miss small gestures and other momentary photo occasions. Canon's inlens image stabilizer gives you a clear viewfinder image, so it's easier to notice and capture such photo opportunities. o [J o o Canon IS Lenses help here Decisive moments with moving subjects.
