Remote Switch RS-60E3 (sold separately) comes with an approx. 
60 cm/2.0 ft cord. When connected to the camera’s remote control 
terminal, it can be pressed halfway and completely, just like the shutter 
button.
When you use the self-timer, bulb, or Remote Switch and do not look 
through the viewfinder, stray light entering the viewfinder can cause the 
image to look dark. To prevent this, use the eyepiece cover (p.27) 
attached to the camera strap.
During Live View shooting and  movie shooting, attaching the 
eyepiece cover is unnecessary.

Basically operates like a built-in flash for easy operation.
When an EX-series Speedlite (sold separately) is attached to the 
camera, almost all the autoflash control is done by the camera. In other 
words, it is like a high-output flash  attached externally in place of the 
built-in flash.
For detailed instructions, refe r to the EX-series Speedlite’s 
instruction manual.  This camera is a Type-A camera that can use all 
the features of EX-series Speedlites.
External Speedlites
EOS-dedicated, EX-series Speedlites
Shoe-mount Speedlites Macro Lites
 With an EX-series Speedlite not compatible with flash function settings 
(p.216), only [ Flash exposure compensation ] can be set for [External 
flash func. setting ]. (With certain EX-s eries Speedlites, [Shutter 
synchronization ] is also settable.)
  If flash exposure compensation is se t with the external Speedlite, the 
flash exposure compensation icon  displayed on the camera’s LCD 
monitor will change from y  to 0 .
  If the Speedlite’s Custom Function  has the flash metering mode set to 
TTL autoflash, the flash will  fire at full output only.

							External Speedlites
306
 With an EZ/E/EG/ML/TL-series Speedlite set in TTL or A-TTL 
autoflash mode, the flash can be  fired at full output only. 
Set the camera’s shooting mode to < a> (manual exposure) or 
< f > (aperture-priority AE) and adjust the aperture setting before 
shooting.
  When using a Speedlite that has manual flash mode, shoot in the 
manual flash mode.
Sync Speed
The camera can synchronize with co mpact, non-Canon flash units at 
1/200 sec. or slower shutter s peeds. Use a sync speed slower than 
1/200 sec.
Be sure to test the flash unit befor ehand to make sure it synchronizes 
properly with the camera.
Cautions for Live View shooting
A non-Canon flash will not fire  during Live View shooting.
Canon Speedlites Other Than the EX-series
Using Non-Canon Flash Units
 If the camera is used with a flash  unit or flash accessory dedicated to 
another camera brand,  the camera may not operate properly and 
malfunction may result.
  Do not attach a high-voltage flash un it on the camera’s hot shoe. It may 
not fire.

Using Eye-Fi Cards
Cautions for Using Eye-Fi Cards If “J ” is displayed, an error occu rred while retrieving the card 
information. Turn the camera’s  power switch off and on again.
  Even if [Eye-Fi trans. ] is set to [Disable], it may still transmit a signal. In

personal computer settings. For deta ils, refer to the card’s instruction 
manual.
  Depending on the  wireless LAN’s connection  conditions, the image 
transfer may take longer  or it may be interrupted.
  Because of the transmis sion function, the Eye-Fi card may become hot.
  The battery power will be consumed faster.
  During the image transfer, auto  power off will not take effect.
