Introduction
The Canon Speedlite 600EX-RT/600EX is a high-output, multi-feature
flash unit for Canon EOS cameras, compatible with E-TTL II, E-TTL and
TTL autoflash and external flash metering systems. The Speedlite can
be used as an on-camera flash that attaches to the hot shoe of the
camera (normal shooting), and as a master unit or slave unit during
wireless shooting. In addition to these three functions, the Speedlite
also has dust and water resistance equivalent to EOS-1D series
cameras.
Note that the 600EX-RT is equipped with a wireless flash shooting
function that uses either radio transmission or optical transmission. The
600EX is equipped with a wireless flash shooting function that uses
optical transmission only.
