FE Lock

Take the picture

• In the viewfinder, check the flash

exposure level indicator and check

that the J icon is displayed.

The flash exposure was locked on the

leaf where the butterfly was resting. m

After recomposing, the picture was I
taken. Since the butterfly’s white wings

and the dark background did not affect

the flash exposure reading, the

butterfly was exposed correctly.

With FE lock

• If the flash will be Insufficient, i will blink. Use a larger aperture (smaller f-

number) and try FE lock again

• FE lock cannot be used when the MR-14EX Is set to the M (Manual) flash

mode. With the EOS Elan ll/Elan IIE/50/50E and EOS IX, the i icon blinks in

the viewfinder to warn that FE lock cannot be used.

0 • The preflash for FE lock fires at about 1/32 output.

• With Type-A cameras other than the EOS-1 D, IV and EOS-3, the AE lock

button functions as an FE lock button when the MR-14EX is flash-ready.

• If the subject is smaller than the spot metering circle, using FE lock might not

make any difference.
