tain sync mode, press the Plus

button and Minus button simulta­

neously.

mode

• Each time the Plus and Minus but­

tons are simultaneously pressed,

the synchronization mode alternates

between first-curtain sync and sec­

ond-curtain sync. When first-curtain
sync is selected, the second-curtain

sync indicator H» disappears from

7. Multiple Flash Setups

Use of several flash units positioned effectively at different angles to the

subject can produce a more balanced, three-dimensional lighting effect

than can be achieved vyith a single, on-camera flash unit. With Canon's
optional multiple flash accessories, easy TTL automatic flash exposure

control is possibie even with several flash units, eliminating the need for

difficult exposure calculations. All of Canon’s E2 Series and E Series
speedlites, as well as the 480EG grip-type speedlite and the ML-3 Macro

Ring Lite, can be used in multi-flash setups comprising as many as four

flash units.
