View Full Version : ST-E2 in manual flash?

Greetings All,
Out of stupidity, I assumed that the ST-E2 with three 550EX heads would be far better than four 550EX heads. The only thing I can do is ETTL autoflash. Not at all what I wanted. I thought I would be able to set each head in manual and set the output on each head and use the ST-E2 to fire the heads. I've got to be missing something here, and I only had about a quarter of an hour to play around with it thus far. Hopefully later on today I can get back to them and maybe figure something out. But if anyone had any ideas I would love to hear them. Just for information, I use everything in manual except when I use fill flash, however, the camera is still in manual.

Thanks!
Todd Asher

I just found the answer in the 550EX manual...Press AND HOLD the mode button for 2 seconds and it can operate in whatever mode you wish. I guess the manuals do contain useful information once and a while.
