If you set flash exposure compensation with both the EX-series Speedlite and
camera, the Speedlite's flash exposure compensation setting will override the
camera's. If you set EX-series Speedlite's flash exposure compensation with the
flash, any flash exposure compensation set with the camera will be overridden.

The exposure compensation amount will remain in effect even after the

switch is set to
<OFF>.
The procedure is the same when using an EX-series Speedlite. The
Speedlite's flash exposure compensation can be set with the camera.
