Canon EOS 7 Service Manual page 16

(7) Built-in Flash
The retractable, built-in flash (serial control) in the pentaprism has Guide No. 13 (at ISO
100), 2-sec. recycling time, and 28mm flash coverage. The flash exposure control uses
3-zone TTL autoflash metering linked to the focusing points. In the Full Auto and
Programmed Image Control modes, the built-in flash pops up and fires automatically in
low-light or backlit conditions. In the Creative Zone modes, you can pop up and fire the
built-in flash manually. The built-in flash retracts manually (push it down with your
fingers). For red-eye reduction, the red-eye reduction lamp shines a light.
(8) Camera Controls and LCD Panel
While based on the EOS ELAN II E / EOS 50 E and EOS REBEL 2000 / EOS 300, the
EOS ELAN 7 E / EOS 30 has the following improvements to make camera operation
easier and more intuitive:
New Eye Control switch, depth-of-field preview
button, and focusing point selection keys.
Metering modes selectable with a button.
The film advance mode lever having a new self-timer
setting (also remote control).
Remote control operation is possible with the RC-1
for wireless picture-taking or with the RS-60E3 for
wired picture-taking.
