More sophisticated ash photography is possible with an optional
Speedlite EX series ash. For movie shooting using an LED light, the
optional Speedlite 320EX ash is available.
● Non-EX series Canon ash units may not re correctly or may not
re at all, in some cases.
● Use of non-Canon ash units (especially high-voltage ash units)
or ash accessories may prevent normal camera operation and
may damage the camera.
● Also refer to the Speedlite EX series manual for additional
information. This camera is a Type-A camera that can use all the
features of EXseries Speedlites.
1
Attach the ash.
● Make sure the camera is off before
attaching the ash.
2
Turn the ash on, and then turn the
camera on.
● A red [ ] icon is now displayed.
● The ash pilot lamp will light up when the
ash is ready.
● Although the electronic viewnder is produced under extremely
high-precision manufacturing conditions and more than 99.99% of
the pixels meet design specications, in rare cases some pixels
may be defective or may appear as red or black dots. This is not a
malfunction. They do not affect the images recorded.
● Vertical or horizontal black bars may be displayed depending on
the selected aspect ratio (
=
45). The black bars indicate image
areas not recorded.
● Press the [
] button on the electronic viewnder to change the
screen displayed.
● In the menu (
=
32), set the [Display Control] option on the
[
1] tab to [Manual] to keep the camera screen from turning on
even when you remove your eye from the viewnder. Press the
[
] button on the electronic viewnder to bring up the camera
display in this mode.
● Using the electronic viewnder in [
], [ ], [ ], [ ], and
[
] modes will result in a smoother display in both the viewnder
and camera screen. In the menu (
=
32), set the [Display
Mode] option on the [
1] tab to [Power Saving] to return to the
normal display and conserve battery power.
● If the Wi-Fi (
=
115) or keyboard screen (
=
33) displays are
brought up in electronic viewnder mode, the display will switch
back to the camera screen.
● Different brightness settings (
=
140) can be dened for the
electronic viewnder and camera screens.
