Fe Lock - Canon 14EX - MR - Ring-type Flash Instruction Manual

7 FE Lock

FE (flash exposure) lock locks the correct flash exposure reading for
any part of the scene.
With <a> displayed on the LCD panel, press the camera's <7>
button. If the camera does not have a <7> button, press the <P>
button.
If the subject is too far away and underexposure will result, the <Q> icon
will blink in the viewfinder. Move closer to the subject and try the FE lock
again.
If <a> is not displayed on the LCD panel, FE lock cannot be set.
If the subject is too small, FE lock might not be very effective.
Focus the subject.
