Attaching And Detaching The Receiver - Canon GP-E2 Mode D'emploi

Attaching and Detaching the Receiver

The receiver can either be attached directly to your camera or carried
with you in the carrying case.
Always make sure to turn the receiver off before attaching or detaching
it.
Depending on the camera model, if you turn on/off the GP-E2 or
connect/disconnect the interface cable during Live View shooting or
movie shooting, Live View shooting or movie shooting may stop.
Attaching the receiver directly to the camera will prevent you from using
the camera's built-in flash or an external flash unit. To use flash, keep
the receiver in the carrying case and connect it to the camera with the
provided 1.5 m / 4.9 ft. cable, or attach the receiver to the Accessory
Bracket AB-E1 (sold separately, p.28).
