Bounce Flash
Take the picture.
• Focus the subject, check that the
< ‘i >
icon is lit in the viewfinder, then
take the picture.
• If the flash exposure confirmation
lamp does not light after the picture is
taken, use a larger aperture and try
again.
O • If the ceiling or wall is too far away, the flash reaching the subject may be
insufficient, resulting in underexposure.
• The bounce surface should be a solid, white color that can reflect light. If the
bounce surface is not a solid, white color, the picture might have a color cast
based on the bounce surface's color or pattern.
Flash Exposure Compensation
If you have an EOS camera that can set flash exposure compensation, you
can apply flash exposure compensation to the 420EX. To set flash
exposure compensation, refer to the camera's instruction booklet.
•

EOS-1 N RS. EOS-3, EOS 5/A2/A2E, EOS 30/ELAN 7 E,
