580EX

Black Canon Speeddute 500X flash unit (no visible text or symbols on body)

Thank you for purchasing a Canon product.

The Canon Speedlite 580EX is an EOS-dedicated, high-output flash unit automatically compatible with E-TTL II, E-TTL, and TTL autoflash. It can be used in three different ways: As a normal on-camera flash, the master unit for a wireless, multi-Speedlite flash system, or a slave unit.

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 the same as with normal AE shooting.

When the 580EX is attached to an EOS camera, almost all automatic exposure control for flash photography is handled by the camera.

It is almost the same as using the camera's built-in flash if it has one.

You can think of the 580EX as a built-in, high-output flash.

It is automatically compatible with the camera's flash metering mode (E-TTL II, E-TTL, and TTL).

The camera controls the Speedlite automatically in the following flash metering modes:

1. E-TTL II autoflash (evaluative flash metering with preflash reading/lens 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 camera's available flash metering modes, refer to the camera's instruction manual. The Speedlite's major specifications are listed in "External Flash Items."

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

* This instruction manual assume that you are using the 580EX with a Type-A camera.

For Type-B cameras, see page 53.

To fire a test flash, press the pilot lamp.

About Quick Flash

Quick flash enables a flash to be fired before flash-ready, when the pilot lamp is still green.

Although the Guide No. will be 1/6 to 1/2 that of the full output, quick flash is effective for near subjects and when you want a shorter recycle time.

Set the drive mode to Single. Quick flash cannot be used in the continuous shooting, FEB, manual flash, and stroboscopic flash modes.

About Auto Power Off

To save battery power, the power will turn off automatically after 90 sec. of idle use. To turn on the Speedlite again, press the shutter button halfway. Or press the Speedlite's test firing button.

• A test firing cannot be fired while the camera's operation timer ⚙4 or ⚙6 is active.
  The Speedlite's settings will be retained in memory even after the power is turned off. To retain the Speedlite's settings when you replace the batteries, replace the batteries within 1 minute after turning off the power.

Fully Automatic Flash Shooting

When you set the camera's shooting mode to

(Program AE) or <□> (Full Auto), E-TTL II/E-TTL fully automatic flash will make it as easy as normal AE shooting.

• will be displayed on the LCD panel even if the camera is compatible with E-TTL II.
  If the flash exposure confirmation lamp does not light, move closer to the subject and take the picture again. You can also increase the camera's ISO speed.

Using E-TTL II and E-TTL Autoflash in the Shooting Modes

Just set the camera's shooting mode to (aperture-priority AE), (shutter-priority AE), or (manual) and you can use E-TTL II/E-TTL autoflash.

Tv	Select this mode when you want to set the shutter speed manually.The camera will then automatically set the aperture matching the shutter speed to obtain a standard exposure.If the aperture display blinks, it means that the background exposure will be underexposed or overexposed. Adjust the shutter speed until the aperture display stops blinking.
Av	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 standard exposure of the background is obtained with a slow shutter speed.Since a slow shutter speed will be used for low-light scenes, using a tripod is recommended.If the shutter speed display blinks, it means that the background exposure will be underexposed or overexposed. Adjust the aperture until the shutter speed display stops blinking.
M	Select this mode when you want to set both the shutter speed and aperture manually.Standard exposure of the main subject is obtained with the flash. The exposure of the background is obtained with the shutter speed and aperture combination you set.

If you use the or shooting mode, the result will be the same as using the

(Program AE) mode.

Press the <◎> button.

The flash exposure compensation amount will be set.

If flash exposure compensation has been set with both the Speedlite and camera, the Speedlite's flash exposure compensation amount will override the camera's.

You can take three flash shots while automatically changing the flash output for each shot up to ±3 stops in 1/3-stop increments (1/2-stop increments if the camera enables only 1/2-stop increments). This is called FEB (Flash Exposure Bracketing).

1 Press the <◎> button so that the <◀> icon and flash exposure bracketing amount blink.

2 Set the flash exposure bracketing amount.

Turn the <○> dial to set the amount.

3 Press the <◎> button. ▶ FEB will be set.

• After all three shots are taken, FEB will be canceled.
  The shots will be taken in the drive mode set with the camera.
  For FEB shooting, set the camera's drive mode to Single shooting and be sure the flash is ready before you shoot.
• You can also combine FEB with flash exposure compensation and FE lock.

FE (flash exposure) lock enables you to lock the correct flash exposure for any part of the picture.

With displayed on the LCD panel, you press the camera's button. If the camera does not have the button, press the <*> button.

1 Focus the subject.

Press the button. (♂16)

  Stroboscopic flash cannot be set.

If you set a shutter speed that is the same or slower than the camera's maximum flash sync speed, < 7_H> will not be displayed in the viewfinder.
With high-speed sync, the faster the shutter speed, the shorter the effective flash range will be. Check the LCD panel for the effective flash range.
To return to normal flash, press the <H/> button so that <H> icon turns off.

Bounce Flash

By pointing the flash head toward a wall or ceiling, the flash will bounce off the surface before illuminating the subject. This can soften shadows behind the subject for a more natural-looking shot. This is called bounce flash.

Set the Bounce Direction

Hold down the button and turn the flash head.

If the flash coverage is set automatically, the flash coverage will be set to 50mm.

The LCD panel will also display <--> mm.

- You can also set the flash coverage manually.

If the wall or ceiling is too far away, the bounced flash might be too weak and result in underexposure.
The wall or ceiling should be a plain, white color for high reflectance. If the bounce surface is not white, a color cast may result in the picture.
After you take the shot, if the flash exposure confirmation lamp does not light, use a larger aperture opening and try again.

Creating a Catchlight

With the catchlight panel, you can create a catchlight in the subject's eyes to add life to the facial expression.

1 Point the flash head upward by 90°.

MULTI Stroboscopic Flash

With stroboscopic flash, a rapid series of flashes is fired. It can be used to capture multiple images of a moving subject in a single photograph for later study.

You can set the firing frequency (number of flashes per sec. expressed as Hz), the number of flashes, and the flash output.

1 Press the button so that is displayed.

Select the item to be set.

- Press the <◎> button to select the item (blinks).

Set the desired setting.

Turn the <◎> dial to set the setting, then press the <◎> button.
The next item to be set will blink.
After you set the flash output and press the <◎> button, the entire display will turn on.

Calculating the Shutter Speed

During stroboscopic flash, the shutter should remain 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 (Hz) = 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.

To avoid overheating and deteriorating the flash head, do not fire more than 10 stroboscopic bursts. Then allow the Speedlite to rest for at least 10 min.

Stroboscopic flash is most effective with a highly reflective subject against a dark background.
Using a tripod, a remote switch, and external power source is recommended.
- A flash output of 1/1 or 1/2 cannot be set for stroboscopic flash.
- Stroboscopic flash can be used with "buLb."
If the number of flashes is displayed as --, the firing will continue until the shutter is closed or the battery runs out. The number of flashes will be limited as shown by the table below.

About Wireless Flash

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

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

The basic wireless set-up is illustrated below. Then all you do is set the master unit to and wireless E-TTL II autoflash will be enabled (p.34). Note that with Type-A cameras prior to the EOS-1D Mark II and EOS ELAN 7NE/ELAN 7N/30V/33V, E-TTL autoflash will be used instead.

Basic Wireless Settings & Setup

Any flash exposure compensation amount, high-speed sync (FP flash), FE lock, FEB amount, manual flash, and stroboscopic flash settings set with the master unit will all be automatically transmitted to the slave units.
Even with multiple Speedlies positioned as slave units, all will be controlled by wireless.
A 580EX set as a slave unit can also be controlled by wireless by Speedlite Transmitter ST-E2 (optional).
Hereinafter, the "master unit" will refer to a 580EX set as the master unit. and a wirelessly-controlled "slave unit" will be a 580EX set as the slave unit.

Multi-Speedlite, Wireless Lighting Configurations

You can create two or three slave groups and set the flash ratio for E-TTL II autoflash shooting (p.38 - 42).

When the slave unit is ready to fire, the AF-assist beam will blink once each second.

7

Check the flash operation.

Press the master unit's test firing button.
The slave unit will fire. If the flash does not fire, adjust the slave unit's angle toward the master unit and distance from the master unit.

8

Set the camera and shoot.

Set the camera in the same way as with normal flash shooting.

Use the mini stand (tripod socket provided) to prop up the slave unit.
Use the bounce feature to swing the slave unit's flash body so that the wireless sensor faces the master unit.
Indoors, the wireless signal may also bounce off the wall so there is more leeway in positioning the slave unit(s).
After positioning the slave unit(s), be sure to test the wireless operation before shooting.
Do not place any obstacles between the master unit and slave unit(s). Obstacles can block the transmission of wireless signals.

The Speedlite's zoom setting will be set automatically to 24mm. It is possible to change the master unit's zoom setting. However, note that the master unit transmits wireless signals to the slave unit(s) with the preflash. Therefore, the flash coverage must cover the slave unit's position. If you change the master unit's zoom setting, be sure to test the wireless operation before shooting.
If the slave unit enters auto power off, it can be turned on again by pressing the master unit's test firing button.
A test flash cannot be fired while the camera's operation timer ⚙4 or ⚙6 is active.

Master Unit's Flash ON/OFF

You can disable the master unit from firing during actual exposure so that only the slave unit(s) will fire in the final picture.

1

Press the button so that the display blinks as shown on the left.

2

Disable the master unit's flash firing.

Turn the <◎> dial to select <○ FF>, then press the <◎> button.
The icon will blink.

Even if you disable the master unit's flash firing, it will still fire a preflash to transmit wireless signals.

Using Fully Automatic Wireless Flash

Flash exposure compensation and other settings set with the master unit will also be automatically set in the slave units. Thus, you need not make settings on the slave unit(s). Wireless flash with the following settings can be done in the same way as with normal flash shooting.

• Flash exposure compensation
  • High-speed sync (FP flash)
• FE lock

• FEB
- Manual flash
- Stroboscopic flash

With FE lock, if even one Speedlite will result in underexposure, the <4> icon will blink in the viewfinder. Open the aperture more or move the slave unit closer to the subject.

The flash ratio range of 8:1 - 1:1 - 1:8 is equivalent to 3:1 - 1:1 - 1:3 in stops (1/2-stop increments).
The flash ratio at the ■ is shown in parentheses below the scale.

Wireless Flash with Three Slave Groups

You can have slave groups A and B and also add slave group C. You can use slave groups A and B to obtain the standard flash exposure of the subject, and slave group C to illuminate the background to eliminate shadows.

Set the slave units.

See "Set the Slave Unit" on page 38 to set the slave unit's ID to <A> , <B> , or <C> .
For slave , also set the flash exposure compensation as necessary.

Set the master unit and shoot.

See "Set the Master Unit" on page 39. In step 4, select .

If is set, the Speedlite in slave group will not fire.

If you point the slave group < C> Speedlite toward the subject, the subject will be overexposed.

Modeling Flash

If the camera has a depth-of-field preview button, press it to fire a 1-sec. burst of flashes. This is the modeling flash.

You can check the lighting and shadow effects. You can fire the modeling flash for both wireless and normal flash shooting.

Do not fire the modeling flash more than 10 consecutive times. If you fire the modeling flash 10 consecutive times, allow the Speedlite to rest for at least 10 min. to avoid overheating and deteriorating the flash head.

The modeling flash cannot be fired with the EOS 300/REBEL 2000 and Type-B cameras (p.2).

About Slave Group Control

For example, if you have the slave ID set to for three Speedlites, all three Speedlites will be controlled as if they were one Speedlite in slave group A.
