External Speedlites
EOS-dedicated,. EX-series Speedlites
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, see the EX-series Speedlite's instruction
manual. This camera is a Type-A camera that can use all the features
of EX-series Speedlites.
