Problems between EOS 300 und 380 EXgreenspun.com : LUSENET : Canon EOS FAQ forum : One Thread |
I made some exposures with a bounce flash and most of the pictures are in fact underexposured. Does anybody know a reason for that? In some cases I belive that the IR light of the flash fireres. I think that means A-TTL. Why does the Combo use no E-TTL?Thanks a lot Kristian

Neither the EOS 300 nor the 380EX are capable of A-TTL. The near IR flashes that you see are probably the AF assist light coming on & off as the camera needs help trying to find focus.A lot of things could cause the underexposure. Could you describe the situation in detail. Distance to subject, bounce? how much of the picture was filled with the subject, brightness, color & distance of the background, slide or print film?

Do you make sure that the green exposure-OK light comes on after the shot? What speed film & which lens are you using?
