Jim, I'll let the Elan 7 owners rejoin your rather sever comments about the
camera if they care to, but do want to mention that E-TTL is, in my opinion,
clearly a much better method of producing accurate and balanced flash.
Besides the other advantages of E-TTL, the pre-flash burst is nearly
imperceptible to a subject as it happens just milliseconds prior to the main
flash. The sensor reads this, sets the exposure and fires the main flash
much more quickly than a subject would have time to blink reflexively.
