Taking the picture
You can check the exposure and depth of field by pressing the depth-of-
field preview button.
Flash photography is also possible. However, FE lock is not possible.
With the 580EX II, the wireless setting cannot be changed.
Under low light or bright light conditions, the Live View image might not
display the proper brightness. However, the captured image will reflect
the exposure setting.
If there is a very bright light source in the picture, such as the sun, the
bright area might be blackened on the LCD monitor. However, the actual
captured image will correctly show the bright area.
When flash is used, there will be two shutter sounds, but only one shot
will be taken.
