I think that is how it should work. At least on my 550ex. You are supposed to set the ratio on the 550ex, and then fire away. But as I mention, this is from what I read since my camera does not support this. Why it does not support it (should be a function of the flash, not the camera) is probably a marketing thing by Canon. -e * **** ******* *********************************************************** * For list instructions, including unsubscribe, see: * http://www.a1.nl/phomepag/markerink/eos_list.htm ***********************************************************
