The purpose of this QuickGuide is to provide a concise
review of how to operate the basic features and functions
of the Canon 320EX Speedlite. Unless otherwise noted,
the following instructions require your 320EX Speedlite to
be mounted to your camera’s hot shoe. This will allow your
camera to communicate with the 320EX and for you to
make flash settings with the camera’s menu system.

The mode you choose will depend mainly on the balance
you prefer between the flash exposure and ambient
light exposure. Longer shutter speeds will allow longer
ambient light exposures to help prevent dark backgrounds;
however, long exposures also risk blur from subject or
camera motion. Smaller apertures provide more depth-
of-field but require more flash power and reduce the
maximum flash range.

For cameras with built-in flash:

* EOS Digital Rebel; Rebel XT, XTi; Rebel XSi; Rebel T1i, T2i,

Flash Coverage
E-TTL II Flash Range
The flash head can be manually extended or retracted to
better match the flash coverage to the camera and lens in
use. Refer to the table below for recommended settings.
This step is not necessary for cameras that have no built-in
flash. It is also not necessary if you have not previously
changed the default flash settings on your camera.
The flash range will vary depending on the ISO setting,
angle of coverage, and maximum aperture of your lens. If
you see a blinking <> icon in your viewfinder then your
subject is too far away. You should either move closer or
increase the ISO. The table on the reverse side provides
a guide to minimum and maximum shooting ranges for the
EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS zoom. Do not use the 320EX in
the extended position at a focal length of 18mm or less, or
the edges of the frame will be darker than the center.

your camera can synchronize with the flash exposure is
represented by “1/x sec” (such as 1/200th second on EOS
Rebel models).
