Description: Designed for automatic operation only, the 220EX Flash Unit excels at providing
natural-looking balanced flash exposures. When attached to the EOS IX, EOS Elan
II/Elan IIe/IIe, or EOS Rebel G, the 220EX incorporates the superior technology of
Canon's unique E-TTL evaluative pre-stored flash exposure control system, FE Lock
for a new dimension of creative control and FP Flash(High Speed Sync) for flash
photography up to maximum shutter speed. When used with other EOS cameras, or
the T90, it operates as a TTL autoflash (off-the-film flash metering).
When in E-TTL operation, flash exposure is measured and controlled by the camera in
combination with Canon's AIM system. Subject position, ambient light level, evaluative
metering and pre-flash data are instantly analyzed, including heavy backlighting or
reflections from background windows or mirrors.
Features: E-TTL preflash autoflash system.
Simplified, lightweight, compact design.
Hot-shoe lock with a single motion.
Flash confirmation lamp (after firing).
Save Energy (SE) feature.
Powered by AA-size batteries.
