If it is difficult to achieve focus with autofocus, the EOS-dedicated, external
Speedlite will automatically emit the AF-assist beam as necessary.
If [z2: Auto Lighting Optimizer] (p.182) is set to any setting other than
[Disable], the image may still look bright even if a decreased exposure
compensation for a darker image is set.
