artie_kraemer Posted March 19, 2004 Share Posted March 19, 2004 I just picked up a EOS 3 body and wanted to know if there is anyway to automatically sync the body to my 550ex at a max sync speed of 1/200 in AV mode? Do I have to shoot it in manual mode then set my shutter speed to 1/200 and just toy with my aperature and go by the distance shown on the back of my speedlite? Any answers would be appreciated...thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wakeforce Posted March 19, 2004 Share Posted March 19, 2004 You could set the command dial to "Tv" which will let you select the shutter speed (1/200 in that matter) and will select the aperture automatically for you... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam_hemphill Posted March 19, 2004 Share Posted March 19, 2004 Set manual mode on the camera with 1/200 and the aperture you want, and leave the flash on E-TTL. The flash and camera body operate (basically) independently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
