Otherwise known as the Evaluative Through the Lens System, the E-TTL system was introduced in 1995 with the debut of the Canon Elan II/50 Camera. Even if the metering process is still done through the lens of the Camera, the E-TTL system is a more advanced system and operates on dissimilar system to that of the TTL system. In addition, the E-TTL system is not backward compatible. The E-TTL system functions by firing a pre-flash, whose brightness is known, from the flash unit to ascertain the exact level of flash exposure. This is achieved by measuring the pre-flash light which is reflected off from the scene. The camera then calculate the correct flash pulse to get a mid tone level on the subject.

I have had the Canon SX110IS for almost a calendar month, and I highly advocate it. It is a bit larger, but it just makes up for it with the 10x zoom. It’s not an SLR, the photographic camera comes with feature a full non-automatic style where you can determine focusing, aperture, and exposure time. The digital image stabilization does a good job of preventing your images blur-free too.

Many Canon EOS camera users often end up confused when they try to use the available modes on the camera without understanding how they function. The reason is that the AV (aperture Priority) mode, TV (Shutter Priority) mode, P (Program) mode and M (Manual) mode handle the metering operation differently. This is especially obvious when you are photographing under condition of low ambient light conditions. Here in this guide, we will give you a breakdown of how the various modes function so that you will know how they work under differing conditions. The FP mode is also assumed not to be turn on in this guide.

If you are wondering whether you should restore your old photographs the first thing you must decide is which problem to fix first. At times it is easy to decide which should be fixed first, some photos might have tears or you may have a photo where your subjects have a bad case of red eye. However, some photos will have a variety of problems and they must be corrected in the proper sequence so when you solve one problem you may be correcting an entirely different problem. Here are a few problems you might attack.

Macro photography is when you photograph your subject close-up. Macro photography allows you to get in close and photograph small details on your subject. Usually macro lenses are 1:1 (”life size”). That means the size of your subject in the frame is generally the same size in real life. Here you will find macro photography tips.

Metering for ambient lighting conditions and flash metering has totally different requirement. The metering for ambient lighting condition is done before the shutter of the camera is opened. In the Canon EOS camera, ambient light metering is done when you press the shutter button halfway down. Flash Pulse metering however is done when the shutter button is press fully down. There are two ways to meter for flash pulse automatically. One way is by measuring the flash pulse as it is being released. The other way is to do a pre-flash test. This is achieved by a low powered test pulse of a calculated brightness before the shutter opens.

These cameras aren’t much bigger than the compact digital cameras, but they offer a lot more user control. The lenses might be bigger, heavier, and of higher optical quality. Almost all creative compact cameras offer the option of storing images in RAW format, usually proprietary but sometimes in Adobe’s standard DNG format.

This general guide will help to explain to you some of the concepts and terms used in relation to Canon EOS flash photography.

There are so many beautiful landscapes. You don’t even have to travel outside of the United States, just visit a local or national park! These tips will help you take wonderful photographs of landscapes. Whether you are a beginning photographer, or a professional, these are simple tips to keep in mind when photographing landscapes.

Before deciding to use Non canon non dedicated flashes with Canon EOS cameras, you will need to be aware of its trigger voltage. Canon Speedlites flashes uses no more than 6 volts in their trigger circuits. As such you have to ensure that the non canon Flashes should also comply within this tolerance. The Canon EOS cameras like the EOS-1,A2/A2E,10s,630,Elan,RT and Rebel are all designed to operate with no more than 6 volts passing through their trigger circuits.
