Did you buy a Canon speedlight hoping to start making well-lit pictures, only to find the menus and buttons so confusing that it just sits in the box? In this course, you’ll learn how to quickly set up your speedlight for both on-camera and off-camera operation. You’ll also find out how to set up your Canon camera itself to make the most of the speedlight—one of the most liberating photography tools you can buy.
