Flash Exposure Lock (FEL)
• The camera must be in a creative mode.
• Live View mode must be disabled.
• Flash mode must be E-TTL.
• First focus on subject.
• Then press the camera’s [*] or [FEL] or [M-Fn] button, or as custom re-configured.
• Flash metering temporarily changes to Spot metering. The ambient and flash exposures
are locked into the camera for 16 seconds, or while [half-shutter] remains pressed.
• “FEL” appears momentarily, and the <Flash> icon and “*” are lit in the viewfinder. The
values are discarded when the shot is taken, or a hi-speed burst ends.
• If the subject is too far away and underexposure may result, the <Flash> icon will blink in
the viewfinder. Move closer to the subject and try the FE lock again.
Flash Exposure Bracketing (FEB)
• Set FEB in 1/3 f/stop increments up to -2 to +2 f/stops (-3 to +3 f/stops on 2012 and later
cameras).
• The zero point for FEB is adjusted by the global FEC setting.
• The sequence of FEB is fixed at 0
minus
plus, even when the on-flash setting is
different.
• The FEB function will be automatically cancelled after the three shots are taken.
• An E-TTL flash which does not support FEB can also be used.
