Hi. Basic Flash Operation

After attaching the 540EZ, set your EOS camera to Program AE or Full
Auto mode. The camera and flash unit automatically operate in A-TTL

program automatic flash mode and the camera automatically sets the

appropriate synchronous shutter speed and aperture value. Just like in

Full Auto mode, this setting makes flash photography easy for anyone in

any situation, from low-light indoor scenes to backlit subjects in daylight.
