you to adjust the ratio of ambient light to Speedlite light output.
E-TTL II meter.
Set to [Eval (FacePrty)] for flash metering suitable for shots of people. High-speed
continuous shooting is slower than when [Evaluative] or [Average] is selected. Set to
[Evaluative] for flash metering that emphasizes firing in continuous shooting. If
[Average] is set, flash exposure is averaged for the entire metered scene. Depending
on the scene, flash exposure compensation may be necessary.
