Congure the external ash
(=
171).
Keep cords (from the macro ring lite or macro twin lite, as well as
the off-camera shoe cord) away from ash heads.
When using a tripod, adjust the position of the legs to prevent the
ash heads from coming into contact with the legs.
Settings for the built-in ash cannot be congured while a
Speedlite EX series ash is attached, because that setting screen
is no longer accessible.
You can also access the setting screen by pressing the [
] button
for at least one second.
The AF-assist beam on the external ash will not re.

More sophisticated ash photography is possible with an optional
Speedlite EX series ash.
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 supports all
features of EX-series Speedlites.
1
Attach the ash.
Make sure the camera is off, and then
attach the ash unit.
2
Turn the ash on, and then turn the
camera on.
An orange [ ] icon is now displayed.
The ash pilot lamp will light up when the
ash is ready.
3
Choose shooting mode [ ], [ ],
[ ], or [ ].
Flash settings can only be congured in
these modes. In other modes, the ash
is adjusted and red automatically, as
needed.
