10. NEW ACCESSORIES
The following system accessories have been developed at the same time as the camera.
(1) SPEEDLITE 420EX (Shoe-mounted
Speedlite)
Developed as the successor to the 380EX,
the SPEEDLITE 420EX has an autozoom
head, maximum Guide No. 42 (with 105mm
lens at ISO 100 in meters), and E-TTL aut-
oflash metering. While retaining the 380EX’s
best features, it has additional features such
as AF-assist light linked to 7 focusing points,
horizontal bounce flash, and wireless slave
unit setting. The size (volume) is also about 10
percent smaller.
(2) BATTERY PACK BP-300 (Battery pack with vertical-grip shutter button)
Dedicated to the EOS ELAN 7 E / EOS 30,
this battery pack attaches to the camera
bottom. The vertical grip has a shutter but-
ton and AE/FE lock button. It houses four
size-AA batteries (Ni-Cd or nickel hydride
only, lithium cannot be used). Also, by
moving the built-in spacer in the battery
chamber, the EOS ELAN 7 E / EOS 30’s
two CR123A batteries can also be used.
(3) EF 28-105mm f/3.5-4.5 II USM
This lens has only a few cosmetic changes compared
to the EF 28-105mm f/3.5-4.5 USM. It is the EOS
ELAN 7 E / EOS 30’s best-matching lens. The opti-
cal specifications are the same as the older lens.
(4) Wide Strap EW-100BK
Wide shoulder strap (with eyepiece cover) that comes
with the EOS ELAN 7 E / EOS 30. Compared to the
EW-100BB, the major differences are in the belt por-
tion which has a different design and the use of a dif-
ferent material for a luxury feel. It also has a non-slip surface.
(5) Semi-hard Case EH14-L
The case was designed to accommodate the camera attached with the EF 28-105mm
f/3.5-4.5 II USM. It is the quick-opening type.
Only the L size is available.
