Smarter Flash Photography

E-TTL II

Canon E-TTL (Evaluative

Through-The-Lens)

flash exposure control

uses a preflash fired

after the shutter but-

ton has been fully

depressed — but before

the camera’s reflex

mirror goes up. The

camera’s Evaluative

metering sensor — the

same sensor that

reads ambient light —

is used to compare

the ambient light

values with the light

reflected from the

subject by the pre-

flash. The camera

then calculates and

stores the flash output required for optimum exposure

of the main subject and the background.

E-TTL II additionally incorporates distance information

from compatible EF lenses for the most precise flash expo-

sure control. For example, it ignores sensor areas that

report abnormally high levels, eliminating underexposure

that can otherwise be caused by straight reflections.

Correct flash exposure is ensured even when shooting a

subject with a highly reflective object in the background,

or if the subject itself is highly reflective. In addition,

because distance information is used in calculating the

flash output level, E-TTL II prevents over-exposure when

photographers lock focus and recompose.

Integral to the EOS System, Canon Speedlites are the ideal flash

light source for EOS SLR cameras. They are technologically

advanced to provide perfect exposure and illumination with just

about any subject. They are also highly adaptable, providing

an endless variety of configurations and versatile shooting

options. For professional flash photography, rely on Canon

Speedlites to solve the most demanding lighting challenges.

Wireless Auto Flash Control

Multiple Speedlites can obtain lighting effects not possible

with a single flash. While previous multiple-flash setups

required cumbersome wires to connect the camera and

flashes, compatible EOS Speedlites can be used as

wireless Slaves. With a Speedlite 580EX II or Speedlite

Transmitter ST-E2 attached to an EOS Digital SLR, an

unlimited number of compatible EX-Series Speedlites can

operate as dedicated Slave units. Some EOS models, like

the EOS 7D and EOS 60D even incorporate an Integrated

Speedlite Transmitter in their built-in flash units. With

nothing more than an EOS camera and a number of

Speedlite flashes, the opportunities for creative lighting

are endless.

Macro Photography and Wireless Options

The Canon Speedlite flash system family includes versatile

solutions for macro photography requirements: The

Macro Ring Lite MR-14EX features twin circular flash tubes

that can be fired at equal or uneven power with a ratio that

can be varied over a six-stop range. One or more compatible

EX-Series Speedlites can be used as wireless slaves along

with the MR-14EX. Incandescent focusing lamps and two

types of modeling flash are provided to enable preview of

lighting effects. The controller unit features an illuminated

full-information LCD panel and accepts optional hi-capacity

battery packs.

The Macro Twin Lite MT-24EX gives serious close-up,

nature and macro enthusiasts a different, directional

option in macro lighting. The two separate flash heads

can be swiveled around the lens and aimed independently.

They can even be removed from their holder and mounted

off-camera. Flash head output can also be independently

adjusted with easy ratio control over a six-stop range.

Like the MR-14EX, the Macro Twin Lite MT-24EX is fully

E-TTL compatible with all EOS SLR bodies. Wireless E-TTL

flash control is possible with one or more 580EX II,

580EX, 550EX, 430EX II, 430EX, or 420EX Speedlites

configured as slave units.

The Speedlite Transmitter ST-E2 is a dedicated controller

that can be used with an unlimited number of compatible

Speedlite slave flashes. The transmitter is effective over

distances up to 33 ft. outdoors and 49.5 ft. indoors.
