IV. Wireless Flash Shooting: Radio Transmission
Note:
The transmitter attached to the camera is called the master unit, and a flash that is
wirelessly controlled is called the slave unit.
When the camera’s shooting mode is set to fully automatic mode or an Image Zone
mode, the operations below are not available. Please set the camera’s shooting mode
to P/Tv/Av/M/B(Creative Zone mode).
Wireless Flash Shooting
Using a transmitter and Canon Speedlites compatible with radio transmission wireless
shooting makes it easy to shoot with advanced wireless multiple flash lighting, in the
same way as normal E-TTLⅡ/E-TTL auto flash shooting.
The settings of the transmitter attached to the camera (master) are automatically
reflected on the flash that is wirelessly controlled (slave). Therefore, you do not need
to operate the slave unit while shooting. You can then perform wireless E-TTL
II/ETTL autoflash shooting just by setting the master unit to ETTL mode.
You can choose to perform autoflash shooting using one slave unit only, or perform
wireless multiple flash shooting using two or more(up to 15) slave units.
The slave units can be speedlites that is compatible with radio transmission wireless
shooting and set on slave mode, and also, by using with E3
+
receiver, other Canon
ETTL flashes that are incompatible with the radio transmission wireless function.
