Canon Speedlite 580EX Features

Speedlite: A Name You Can Trust

Canon's top-of-the-line Speedlite has been thoroughly revised. It's smaller and lighter than ever, yet provides a bit more power and significantly faster recycling. A new Select Dial makes changes, like exposure compensation, a breeze. It now covers lenses as wide as 14mm, and has new features for digital SLRs—including the ability to transmit precise flash color temperature information, and vary the zoom setting to match the imaging sensor.

Get The Proper Exposure Every Time

Canon's Speedlite employs Evaluative Through The Lens (E-TTL) flash metering. The beauty of E-TTL is that it discharges a low-power preflash from the main bulb to determine correct flash exposure. The preflash is used to calculate the proper light output needed to achieve a properly exposed subject.

Less Fooling Around

The preflash exposure is calculated by the camera's metering system, as opposed to being measured as a reflection off the film. This means more accurate exposure metering and less fooling caused by stray light bouncing around inside the camera.

Smart Sensors

If a photograph is taken under extremely bright conditions, auto fill reduction is automatically triggered and the white light output will be diminished by approximately 2 f-stops.

Going The Distance

With a standard 50mm lens, the Speedlite 580EX has a distance range of up to 98 feet. And the assist beam covers all focus points in EOS cameras with 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, or 45 AF points with a distance range of two to 32.8 feet at center and two to 16.4 feet at periphery.

Choice Is Good

The Speedlite 580EX can be powered using four AA batteries or with a CP-E3, CP-E2, or Transistor Pack E battery packs.
