CHECK PROCEDURE (SEE PAGE 4-34)
1) Mount the camera on a tripod and attach an EF 50mm f/1.8 lens and Speedlite.
2) Set the camera to the Program mode.
3) Set the camera to ISO 100 and set the measuring instrument (flash meter or EF-
8000 or EF-5000) to ISO 100. Then release the shutter and take a reading. If
you are using a flash meter, press the camera’s FE-L button, then release the
shutter. This way, the preflash will not be metered.
4) If the readings are within the standard, set the ISO to 1600 and release the
shutter and take a reading.
5) If the readings taken at ISO 100 and ISO 1600 meet the standards, it is normal
(already adjusted).
6) If the readings do not meet the standard even after the adjustment, the AE
tester’s brightness might be faulty.
