About Color Temperature Information Transmission
When the flash fires, the color temperature information is transmitted to
the EOS DIGITAL camera. This feature optimizes the flash picture's
white balance. When the camera's white balance is set to
<m> or
<$>, it will work automatically.
To see if this feature works with your camera, see the Specifications in
your camera's instruction manual.
About the AF-Assist Beam
Under low-light or low-contrast conditions when autofocus cannot be
achieved, the built-in AF-assist beam will be emitted automatically to
make it easier to autofocus. The
430EX Il's AF-assist beam is
compatible with the
AF points of almost all EOS cameras. The AF-
assist beam is compatible with 28mm and longer lenses. The effective
range is shown below.
