This is my first time out on the forum. Has anyone any experience using the 540EZ with the Digital Rebel? I'm finding that I can only use the flash on manual...
hello there, peter here from new zealand. over here we call it the 300d camera. it will not fire the flash on anything but manual because its an "A" series...
Mike, You might find this helpful: http://www.eosdoc.com/manuals.asp?q=types As peter said, digital Canon Bodies only seem capable of E-TTL, which is not...
Thanks Peter, There had to be a logical explanation and the lack of "off the film" metering in a digital says it all. Looks like the Metz it is, although I...
Thanks Harman the chart is most useful, especially as I still want to use my Eos100/Elan and Eos 5/A2e. It's hard to give up the old film habit! Cheers, Mike ...
Thanks Mike, It looks like the 540EZ is for my Eos 5/A2e and 100/Elan only which is a bit of a pity Incidentally the lens brochure Canon put out in Australia...
Hi gang, This article only addresses syncing a single EX Speedlite with simple optical slave triggers. http://eosdoc.com/manuals.asp?q=blankFEL I have seen...
... Mike, If you are referring to the Canon EF-S 18-55mm, the Canon USA website does not seem to mention that it has USM. I used to think that only USM lenses...
Hi Harman, I couldn't agree more, although it's just the internal focus and manual focus override they appear to have misadvertised they don't promote it as...
I am trying to locate an instruction book for the EOS Rebel G camera. Is there a PDF file someplace on the web? t Best Regards Terry Campbell (INTJ) ...
Good Morning to all on the group from England. I am looking for some assistance and hope that someone in the group may be able to help. I am URGENTLY looking...
The announcement of E-TTL II has made things a bit more complicated. See if you agree with the table: http://eosdoc.com/manuals.asp?q=types Cheers Julian Loke...
... Yes, provided that you own the copyright, or at least have a copyright release for your upload. EOSDOC is too important to risk being shut down by lawyers...
Hi Julian, Love it.... The dreaded BC. Following Bloody Contacts, could you perhaps include another BC: Bit'a Cardboard Some brands of 2CR5 batteries are...
Hi Julian, The new EOS 30/Elan 7 replacement also has e-ttl II. They're called the ELan 7n/Elan7ne in the US (that's a mouthful!) and EOS 33v/30v elsewhere. ...
Gary, The replacement 7N is already included in the chart, as far as I can see. It is under the column for body "Type AII" (next to the body "Type A") and the...
Hi Harman, You are of course correct, I missed the first AII column, and only looked at the rightmost one..... I guess that brings to bear the column ordering....
Certainly seems more "progressive" I must say ! Well, I would go by your suggestion Gary, The ordering you suggest looks more "chronological"ly correct. This...
Hi Harman, Yep, the 1V/1VHS would have to be type A/Top... Maybe another alternative would be to have another row at the top of the table, with two headings....
That would be a good suggestion : some way of indicating the grouping by either a heading, or perhaps even a different color for the background of the "Type"...
... Except that the DCS 1, DCS 3, DCS 2000, and DCS 6000 digital cameras would belong in the "film" category. And I shudder to think what would happen to the...
... I added some of the missing model names. There is already a problem with the "Type A" designation, where the Elan 7 does not have manual FEL metering, but ...
... Julian, Type AII- :-) Fits *neatly* between A+ and AII! Cheers Gary P.S. Does anyone know if the TTL flash metering in the DCS series actually worked?...
... Don't claim to "know" anything but I did a search on dpreview and although the articles mention TTL and A-TTL flash modes, the reviews are not conclusive...
