Initial Camera Setup

1. Set ISO to 80.
2. Set camera mode dial to "Av" Aperture priority. In Aperture Priority mode
"Av" the shutter speed should automatically go to 1/60 second.
3. Set Flash to "On" (lightning bolt in LCD).
4. For General photography, set aperture to f3.5.
5. For Macro photography, set aperture to f8.0.
6. Set White Balance (AWB) to "Auto."
7. Set Image Size to "L" and compression to "S" Superfine.
8. Set Metering to "Center-Weighted Average."
9. In the camera menu set the "ND" Filter to "Cancel."
NOTES:
TTL Flash is NOT available when camera is in "M" Manual mode. There
is no TTL flash even with Canon's own flash in the camera "M" mode.
Manual power settings can be selected with the multi-control button on
the back of the camera. The strobe should still be left in TTL to take
advantage of this feature.
Leave the housing hotshoe disconnected when using an EV manual
controller. If using an EV controller in "M" Manual mode, set the EV
controller to "non-Pre-flash."
When multiple exposure (continuous shooting) mode is used, the
external flash will not fire. This is normal and also happens with Canon
external speedlights.
