* Regarding the [FEB] (Flash exposure bracketing), [Zoom], and [Wireless set.], 
refer to the Speedlite’s instruction manual.
 
Flash mode
With an external Speedlite, you can select the flash mode to suit 
your flash shooting.
 
[E-TTL II] is the standard mode for 
EX-series Speedlites for automatic 
flash shooting.
 
[Manual flash] enables you to set the 
flash output yourself. This is for 
advanced users.
 
Regarding other flash modes, refer to 
your Speedlite’s instruction manual.
 
Shutter sync.
Normally, set this to [1st curtain] so that the flash fires immediately 
after the exposure starts.
If [2nd curtain] is set, the flash will fire right before the exposure 
ends. When this is combined with a slow sync speed, you can create 
a trail of light such as from car headlights at night. With 2nd curtain 
sync, two flashes will be fired, once when you press the shutter 
button completely, and once immediately before the exposure ends.
If an external Speedlite is attached, you can also set [Hi-speed]. For 
details, see the Speedlite’s instruction manual.
