Using E-TTL II and E-TTL Autoflash in the Shooting Modes
EOS digital cameras have three sizes of image sensors, and the effective
focal length of the mounted lens varies depending on the model. This
flash automatically recognizes the image sensor size of each EOS digital
camera, and automatically adjusts the optimum flash coverage for the
effective focal length of the lens in a range of 20 to 200 mm.
When mounted on a supported camera, <S> is displayed on the LCD panel.

This function optimizes the white balance during flash shooting by
transmitting the color temperature information to the EOS digital
camera when the flash fires. When you set the camera’s white balance
to <A> or <Q>, the function is enabled automatically.
