For Type-B Cameras

Basic Flash Photography

When the Speedlite 550EX is attached to a Type-B camera such as the EOS-

1N, you can take flash pictures with TTL autoflash as easily as normal

autoexposure (AE) pictures. Flash photography can be fully automafic—all
you do is press the shutter button. Or you can set the desired shutter speed

and aperture and still obtain autoflash exposure.

With the EOS-1 N, the flash exposure is controlled by real-time, 3-zone, off-

the-film TTL autoflash metering linked to the active focusing point.

This section assumes that the Speedlite 550EX is used with the EOS-1 N.

Before proceeding, first turn on the EOS-1 N and the 550EX

Set the 550EX's wireless selector to OFF.

For EOS-1 N operations, refer to the EOS-1 N Instructions.
