The Speedlite can be used as an on-camera flash that attaches to the hot shoe of the camera (normal shooting), and as a master unit or slave unit during wireless shooting. In addition to these three functions, the Speedlite also has dust and water resistance equivalent to EOS-1D series cameras. Note that the 600EX-RT is equipped with a wireless flash shooting function that uses either radio transmission or optical transmission. The 600EX is equipped with a wireless flash shooting function that uses optical transmission only. 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.
