The subject's flash cxposurc reading
is obtained with the
preflash and
used to set the main flash output.
Wireless flash photography is there
-
by executed with an optimum flash
ou1put.
When the correct flash exposure is
obtained, the
ST-E2's flash confir

mation lamp lights for about 3 sec.
immediately after the flash fires. If
it does not light, the picture might
be underexposed. In this case, use a
larger aperture or place the slave

steps
(2) to
(5).
With the EOS
-

the piclure is taken. See
page 32.
The slave must be properly

AF
-

Under low-light or low-contrast
conditions, the
ST-E2's
AF
-
assist beam
is
emitted to assist
autofocusing.
The
AF
-
assist
beam is compatible with the
EOS-3's Area AF. The AF-assist
beam's effective range
is
about
0.6
meter to
10
meters
at
the
center and
0.6
meter to
5
meters along the periphery.
The ST-E2's AF

attached to the EOS-3. In
the
case
of
EOS
cameras with a built
-

-
assist beam emitter, the beam will
be emitted by the camera.
The slave's AF
-
assist beam is not
emitted (except when the flash is
ready).
