Using a Canon Speedlite (master/slave) with a radio transmission
wireless shooting function makes it easy to shoot with advanced
wireless multiple flash lighting, in the same way as normal E-TTL II/
E-TTL autoflash shooting.
The system is designed so that the settings of the 600EX-RT attached
to the camera (master) are automatically reflected on the 600EX-RT
that is wirelessly controlled (slave). Therefore, you do not need to
operate the slave unit while shooting.
The basic relative positions and operating range are as shown in the
figure. You can then perform wireless E-TTL II/E-TTL autoflash
shooting just by setting the master unit to <
a
>.
