Mark, thanks for excellent explanation. I bought the 60D last year & have only been using the camera flash until recently. I dug out my Cobra 700 AF & tried it at a Mountain Bike Time Trial last weekend, but found it not quick enough. So I splashed out on a second-hand 430Ex. I hadn't realised the 60D would fire the flash wirelessly. So again, many thanks for the vid

When shooting in LIVE view, for those who don't know, there is an option for the autofocusing for situations. Live View is the default where the white box you see on the monitor will be the area for the camera to focus on. This is good for if you want to get low to the ground and focus on a subject by turning the wheel to move that focus box. The second option is the Live view Face Detection. Obvious what it means. The camera, in autofocus, will look for faces to focus on when the shutter button is halfway pressed or via remote. The last one is Quick Mode. I use this to autofocus quickly like during sports games where it'll be easier to look through live view than the viewfinder. Good for focusing on fast movement on the spot. Using any of the other two will take time for the camera to focus.

What you're seeing is the pre-flash. It fires a split second before the actual flash exposure. The popup flash firing is necessary to control remote flashes and there's no way to turn it off. If you did, remote wouldn't work. Since the popup pre-flash fires before the actual it doesn't contribute to the image... most of the time. If you're close to your subject you may catch a bit of the tail end of the pre-flash in the exposure. You'll also see the tail of the pre-flash in mirrored objects.

I think of it as a ratio. when you select the first option with the : (colon) you're given a second option to select the ration. So it adds an option for 2:1 (and 3:1, and 4:1 etc...) which will make the external flash 2x as powerful as the built in. I haven't worked with the multiple groups as he describes below (as I only have a single 430) but I played with this feature last night going through the manual.

Yes I was using the RC-6 to fire the camera shutter and flash. While the RC-6 is ok. It has a limited range since it's an infrared controller. I would recommend the Yongnuo MC-36R because it's radio controlled and has more features than the RC-6. It cost just a bit more than the RC-6.

It's wireless because there are no wires running from the camera to the flash. The 60D cannot trigger a 430EXII (or any EX flash) without using the pop flash. The popup flash is what is used to signal and control the remote flashes via infra-red. If you use the newer 600EX-RT with the ST-E3 the 600EX would then be controlled via radio vs infra-red. The wireless system on 430EX works great as long as you have a good line of sight from the camera to the flash.

For portraits I really like a 50mm, 85mm or 105mm if I have the space for. I tend to go for the 85mm the most, then the 50mm and 105 if I have enough room to backup. I've kind of been back and forth between primes and zooms and I tend to lean a bit more to the primes because of the quality and the fact that you can get them at f/1.4 or f/1.8 at a reasonable price. I hope this helps.

Great tutorial. Only just discovered it! Problem is I have a Nissin Di622 mk1 and I don't think this flash is enabled to work wirelessly in this mode with the my 60D. There is a way but with no ETTL. I use the camera flash normally but reduce the compensation to it's lowest level so the flash hardly shows and then set my Nissin mode to receive a pulse from my camera flash which operates the remote flash. Also stick a piece of exposed 35mm film onto the 60D pop up to hide the flash. It works!

The 60D only allows you to control two groups of flashes independently. So you can have one flash in group A and another in Group B and control them separately. You could have the popup flash enabled and control it independently as a third group. Unfortunately on the 60D you can't control a C group independently. You can have multiple flashes in group A or B but for ex. all the A's would be controlled at the same power setting and likewise with the B's. FYI the 7D does allow for a C group.

If the pop flash is stuck down, there's an easy fix for it. There's a micro switch on the hotshoe that is stuck that is preventing it from popping up. Search KZitem for "60D popup flash fix" and you'll find a video that shows you how to get it to release. HTH

I've owned the 50D & 60D but have used the 5D quite often. I upgraded from the 50D to the 60D because the noise at higher ISO was much better. The 50D also suffered from some banding issues at higher ISO's. The only thing I don't like about the 60D is that they removed the lens micro-adjust feature but it hasn't been an issue with my shooting. While I love the 5D Mk1 there's much better technology in the newer cams. I hear the 70D will be out soon and will add back semi pro features of the 50D.

I'd much rather not spend $400+ on the Mini and Flex setup. Possible to elaborate on any problems you've experienced with the built in 60d trigger? Thx!

Great Video thanks! I understand the concept of the pop up being the trigger, but still can't grasp the concept that it shows up in a mirror shot and seems to add light to the exposure. Let me explain: Setting is in the middle ie just my 430exII to fire, shoot camera in to a mirror so the pop up and the externals are just visible, and clearly the pop up shows along with the external. Surely if it was a split second pre flash then only the 430ex would be visible in the shot?? So must add light?

Honestly with that in mind I think the 60D would be your best value. While it's the same sensor size as your 500D it offers amazing quality and you have the option for video if you want to test the waters there. I never thought I would use video on a DSLR but now I find I use it almost as much as taking pictures. Don't get me wrong the 5DmkI and 50D are still great cameras and capable of taking great pics but the 60D gives your more options for future endeavors.

Unfortunately HSS does not work with the popup flashes on the Canon cameras. This is the one thing that Nikon excels in. While their popup won't work over the x-sync speed it will allow remote flash to go over x-sync to achieve HSS. While I love the way Nikon flashes work, it's not enough to make me switch.

If you control any Canon ETTL flash using the popup your max is 1/250. That's just using this setup. A manual flash like a Vivitar 285HV, Yongnuo 560II, etc is only going to get a max of 1/250.If you control a flash like the 430EXII with a 580EXII as the master on the hot shoe, your max is 1/8000 via ETTL HSS. If you use the Pocketwizard Flex System (miniTT1//FlexTT5) with Canon branded flashes you can achieve up to 1/8000 via radio triggering. The built trigger on the 60D is maxed at 1/250.

The popup flash will ALWAYS fire and there is no way to turn it off completely. What happens is the popup flash triggers to tell the 580 to fire but it's off during the actually exposure or shot. This is perfectly normal.

The built in flash will fire every time! It's what's used to trigger the remotes. If you setup everything according to how I did in the video, while the built in will trigger the external flashes it won't contribute to the actual exposure. The reason you didn't see it in the second shot is because the brief pop of flash was between frames during the video recording.
