EOS Accessories
To enhance the performance and scope of what you can do with the EOS 30D, look no
further than Canon accessories. Canon’s Speedlite flashes, Battery Grip BG-E2, Wireless File
Transmitter WFT-E1A and more work with the EOS 30D to make stunning photography easy.
E-TTL II Flash Metering System
The E-TTL II (Evaluative Through-The-Lens) flash
metering system
weighs and averages the flash
metering information from both ambient light
and preflash readings. E-TTL II captures the
subject as a “plane” and not as a “point,” so the
30D can obtain consistent flash exposures even
if the subject contains radical changes in color
or reflectivity.
