The MR-14EX II charges faster than the previous model
(the maximum of 7 sec.* is reduced to approx. 5.5
sec.*). Because you can check the charging status on
the indicator, the flash is now easier to handle than
ever before. This model is also equipped with Quick
flash for flash photography before the flash is fully
charged. Flash output decreases, however, this is
effective for when you want to shorten the firing time.
* Based on new AA/LR6 alkaline batteries, both sides firing, and Canon's testing standards.
