NOTES
Depending on the Speedlite, some functions may not be available with this camcorder.
When using a Speedlite that is not an EX-series Speedlite*, it may not fire at full power, fire correctly or fire at
all.
Using a non-Canon flash (especially high-voltage models) or flash accessories can cause a malfunction of the
camcorder or cause the camcorder to not function normally.
The following actions will reset the flash settings.
- Attaching or removing the Speedlite.
- While the Speedlite is attached to the camcorder, turning off the camcorder or Speedlite.
* EX-series Speedlites include the 270EX II, 320EX, 430EX II, 580EX II and 600EX-RT.
