Thank you for purchasing a Canon product.

The Canon Speedlite 580EX II is an EOS-dedicated, high-output flash unit automatically compatible with E-TTL 11, E-TTL, and TTL autoflash. It can serve as an on-camera flash as well as a master unit or a slave unit in a wireless, multiple-Speedlite system. It has the same dust- and water-resistance as EOS-1D series cameras.

e Read this instruction manual while also referring to your camera's instruction manual. Before using the Speedlite, read this instruction manual and your camera's instruction manual to familiarize yourself with the Speedlite operations.

The basic operation is as easy as with normal AE shooting. When the 580EX Il is attached to an EOS camera, almost all automatic exposure control for flash photography is handled by the camera.

Itis almost the same as using the cameras built-in flash if it has one. You can think of the 580EX Il as a built-in, high-output flash, but attached externally.

It becomes automatically compatible with the camera’s flash metering mode (E-TTL Il, E-TTL, and TTL). In accordance with the camera's flash control system, the Speedlite controls È the flash automatically in the respective flash metering mode: 1. E-TTL Il autoflash (evaluative flash metering with preflash readingllens distance information) 2. E-TTL autoflash (evaluative flash metering with preflash reading) 3._ TTL autoflash (off-the-film metering for real-time flash metering)

Regarding the cameras available flash metering modes, refer to the “External Speedlite” specification in the “Specifications” of your camera's instruction manual.

The camera instruction manual's chapter on flash photography will refer to cameras having flash metering modes 1 or 2 as a Type-A camera (compatible with E-TTL Il or E-TTL). And cameras having flash metering mode 3 (compatible with only TTL) are called Type-B cameras.

*_ This instruction manual assumes that you are using the Speediite with a Type-A camera. For Type-B cameras, see page 55.

r— € Cautions for firing continuous flashes e To avoid overheating and degrading the flash head, do not fire more than 20 continuous flashes. After 20 continuous flashes, allow a rest time of at least 10 min.

e If you fire more than 20 continuous flashes and then fire more flashes in short intervals, the inner overheating prevention function may be activated to make the recycling time about 8 to 20 sec. If this occurs, allow a rest time of about

15 min. and the flash will then return to normal.

Select this mode when you want to set the shutter speed manual. The camera will then automatically set the aperture matching the Shutter speed to obtain a standard exposure.

Select this mode when you want to set the aperture manually.

The camera will then automatically set the shutter speed matching the

aperture to obtain a standard exposure.

If the background is dark like a night scene, a slow sync speed will be used

to obtain a standard exposure of both the main subject and background.

Standard exposure of the main subject is obtained with the flash, while a

During stroboscopic flash, the shutter remains open until the firing stops. Use the formula below to calculate the shutter speed and set it with the camera.

Number of flashes + Firing frequency = Shutter speed For example, if the number of flashes is 10 and the firing frequency is 5 Hz, the shutter speed should be at least 2 sec.

About Wireless Flash x

With multiple Canon Speedlites having the wireless flash feature, you can create various lighting effects with the same ease as using normal E-TTL Il autoñash.

The settings you input with the 580EX II (master unit) attached to the camera are also automatically transmitted to the slave units which are controlled by the master unit via wireless. Therefore, you need not operate the slave unit(s) at all during the shoot.

The basic wireless set-up is illustrated below. All you need to do is set the master unit to <ETTL> enable wireless E-TTL Il autoñlash (p.37). Note that with Type-A cameras prior to the EOS-1D Mark Il and EOS ELAN 7NE/ELAN 7N/30V/33V, E-TTL autoflash will be used instead.

Positioning and Operation Range

8m (26.2#.) 12m (39.41)

E] + Any flash exposure compensation, high-speed sync (FP flash), FE lock, FEB, manual flash, and stroboscopic flash settings set with the master unit will all be automatically transmitted to the slave units.

e Even with multiple slave units, all of them will be controlled in the same way via wireless.

e A 580EX II set as a slave unit can also be controlled by wireless by Speedite Transmitter ST-E2 (optional)
