Thank you for purchasing a Canon product.
The Canon Speedlite 270EX II is a compact flash unit for Canon EOS cameras, and works
with the E-TTL II and E-TTL autoflash systems. All control is performed on the camera side,
letting you easily enjoy flash shooting in the same manner as a built-in flash.
Use with an EOS DIGITAL camera
• The 270EX II is designed for optimum use with an EOS DIGITAL camera.
Use with an EOS film camera
• When used with an E-TTL II or E-TTL autoflash EOS film camera, autoflash shooting can
be performed in the same manner as when used with an EOS DIGITAL camera.
• The 270EX II cannot be used with TTL autoflash EOS film cameras.
Be sure to also read the description of flash shooting in the camera’s instruction
manual. For convenience, a camera compatible with E-TTL II/E-TTL autoflash systems is
indicated as Type-A camera in camera’s instruction manuals.
