Even in 〈〉, 〈〉, and 〈〉modes, E-TTL autoflash is as easy as normal picture-taking without flash.
(1) Press the shutter button down halfway to have the camera automatically set the shutter
speed or aperture value, just as in normal picture-taking without flash.
(2) Press the shutter button down fully for E-TTL autoflash, using preflash evaluative metering
based on the aperture value set in (1).
(3) The background exposure is determined by the shutter speed and aperture value.
