E-TTL/E-TTL II Wireless Autoflash Control

Up to three groups (for main, fill, and background)

of slave units can be set up for comprehensive

ontr

ol of flash lighting. The Speedlite slave units

can be assigned to group A, B, or C, with output

ratio between groups A and B adjustable from

8:1 to 1:1 or 1:1 to 1:8. The output of the group C

can be adjusted through flash exposure compen-

sation. You can concentrate on perfect lighting

because the E-TTL/E-TTL II autoflash system controls

the total flash output to ensure consistently correct

exposure. Also, when Speedlite 580EX II is used with

any current EOS Digital SLR and most EOS 35mm

cameras, you can fire a modeling (preview) flash

for a full second at 70Hz by pressing the depth-of-

field preview button. Even with multiple Speedlites,

the modeling flash fires according to the ratios

ou have set. E-TTL/E-TTL II wireless autoflash

also supports most other Speedlite features,

such as FE Lock, FP Flash, Flash Exposure Bracketing/

ompensation, and Stroboscopic Flash. Finally,

for macro shooting, the Macro Ring Lite MR-14EX

and Macro Twin Lite MT-24EX can be used as

aster units, as well.

Sample Photo Analysis – Three flash units provided illumi-

nation. The light from the master flash unit (A), a Speedlite

80EX II mounted on the camera, was bounced off the wall

soften its

intensity before reaching the two violin makers.

A slave 580EX II (B) was set far enough away on a desk to

be pointed directly at the statue, and another 580EX II (B)

was used to light up the overall office. Based on the results

disp

yed on the c

amer

a’s

LCD monitor, the brightness of

the master flash unit was halved to achieve natural lighting.

Canon’s EX series Speedlites have made multiple-flash photography simple,

wireless and automatic. Using either the Speedlite 580EX II or the Speedlite

Transmitter ST-E2 as a master unit, wireless signals are transmitted to an unlimited

number of Speedlites 580EX II or 430EX II, creating myriad possibilities for

lighting, no matter the location.
