The Speedlite 430EX III-RT and 430EX III include new features such as a built-in catchlight panel for softer illumination, broader bounce angle range, new dot-matrix LCD and control dial for more convenient operation, encapsulated in a smaller and more compact body. These versatile flash units capture brighter and more natural looking images in various situations such as lowlight interior shots, backlit outdoor shots, and more. The Speedlite 430EX III-RT is a variant that is capable of Radio Transmission Wireless Flash Shooting.<\/div>\n<div style=\"color: #000000;\">\n\u201cCanon continues to innovate through technology and these accessories aim to enhance the user experience. The compact Speedlite 430EX III-RT and Speedlite 430EX III packs a shorter recycling time and quick firing to produce natural and aesthetically pleasing images,\u201d said Edwin Teoh, Assistant Director, Consumer Business Marketing, Canon Singapore. \u201cEntry to high-level amateur users who are looking to take their photography skills to the next level will find the Speedlite 430EX III-RT and Speedlite 430EX III convenient to take along and easy to use with its intuitive and user-friendly operation.\u201d<\/div>\n<div style=\"color: #000000;\">\n<strong>Radio Transmission for Wireless Flash Shooting \u2013 a first for the 430EX range<\/strong><\/div>\n<div style=\"color: #000000;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"color: #000000;\">The new Speedlite 430EX III-RT is equipped with wireless flash shooting feature, which makes it ideal for synchronised flash and shutter release for multiple cameras simultaneously. The Speedlite 430EX III-RT has dual functions of both a master and slave unit, in groups of up to 16 flash units using radio transmission. This marks a first for the 430EX range, and greatly expands its capabilities as multiple flash units can be set up to illuminate different subjects within the same shot. In the case where only a single camera is used, the camera\u2019s shutter can be triggered remotely using radio transmission wireless shooting.<\/div>\n<div style=\"color: #000000;\">\nThe Speedlite 430EX III-RT has the added advantage of radio transmission that synchronises different flashes to simultaneously trigger and shoot the same particularly large-sized subjects from a variety of angles. Through radio transmission, the flashes are much less affected by physical obstacles such as walls or columns, and the slave unit wireless receptors are not required to face the main unit physically. The transmission distance of the Speedlite 430EX III-RT is up to 30m, twice that of the Speedlite 430EX III at 15m.<\/div>\n<div style=\"color: #000000;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Enhanced operability with Improved User Interface<\/strong><\/div>\n<div style=\"color: #000000;\">\nThe new Speedlite 430EX III-RT and Speedlite 430EX III both feature a new dot-matrix LCD for more diverse display options, easily distinguishable graphics, and clearer text. This new graphic user interface (GUI) allows quick adjustments to settings like Sync, Flash<\/div>\n<div style=\"color: #000000;\">Coverage and Multi-flash group.<\/div>\n<div style=\"color: #000000;\">\nDesigned with a new control dial, menu navigation is now much faster than before. The Speedlite 430EX III also has a new feature that adjusts light distribution from telephoto shots to wide angle shots. Depending on the lens, light distribution can be set to standard, guide number priority, or even coverage to suit the intended shot.<\/div>\n<div style=\"color: #000000;\">\n<strong>New accessories to aid in acquiring advanced flash techniques for exceptional beauty<\/strong><\/div>\n<div style=\"color: #000000;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"color: #000000;\">The new Speedlite 430EX III-RT and Speedlite 430EX III are bundled with a bounce adaptor and colour filter for advanced flash techniques. This bundling, a first in the 430EX series, makes for good value and provides a variety of accessories to enable high performance in diverse shooting scenarios. The bounce adaptor helps to diffuse flash light, create softness and even more natural brightness, which enhance facial expressions for beautiful portrait shots. Without the use of the bounce adaptor, light that is reflected off the ceiling may cast shadows on the lower half of a subject\u2019s face, while light directed straight at the subject results in a flat-looking portrait that lacks vitality or a three-dimensionality element.<\/div>\n<div style=\"color: #000000;\">\nThe colour filter adjusts the white balance of a subject or background to keep the image looking natural as a whole. Photos shot under incandescent light and flash might look unnatural due to the huge contrast in colours of the subject and their background. With the orange-tinted colour filter, the colour of the flash can be controlled to make the shot look warmer and more natural.<\/div>\n<div style=\"color: #000000;\">\nBoth accessories can be conveniently carried around with the main flash unit within a bundled carrying bag.<\/div>\n<div style=\"color: #000000;\">\n<strong>Improved design for more compactness and flexibility<\/strong><\/div>\n<div style=\"color: #000000;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"color: #000000;\">Canon reassessed and refined the optical zooming system of the new Speedlite 430EX III-RT and Speedlite 430EX III for space efficiency. These new flashes are more compact and convenient to carry around. The head of the flash now has a wider range of movement, with a 90-degree tilt upwards, 150-degree leftwards, and 180-degree rightwards. This broader bounce angle range provides more freedom to capture images regardless of the camera\u2019s position.<\/div>\n<div style=\"color: #000000;\">\nThe Speedlite now features a quick flash with a shorter recycle time at only 0.1-2.5 seconds to produce more shots in a sequence.<\/div>\n<div style=\"color: #000000;\">\n<strong>Another upcoming remote control adapter accessory<\/strong><\/div>\n<div style=\"color: #000000;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"color: #000000;\">Canon has also launched the RA-E3, a remote control adapter dedicated to complement Canon EOS DSLRs without the N3 control terminal to use the TC80-N3 Timer Remote Controller. The TC80-N3 is a wired controller that sets interval shooting times for automated shots and is only compatible with the N3 control terminal, available on cameras like the EOS 5D Mk III. The RA-E3 allows the TC80-N3 to be plugged into cameras that do not use the N3 terminal, specifically the EOS 70D, EOS 760D and EOS 750D.<\/div>\n<div style=\"color: #000000;\">\n<strong>Pricing and Availability<\/strong><\/div>\n<div style=\"color: #000000;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"color: #000000;\">The Speedlite 430EX III-RT and Speedlite 430EX III will be available from October 2015 and pricing will be advised at a later date.<\/div>\n<div style=\"color: #000000;\">\n<strong>Specification Summary<\/strong><\/div>\n<div style=\"color: #000000;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"color: #000000;\">Speedlite 430EX III-RT<br \/>\nGuide number (Wide Panel): 43 (14)*<br \/>\nDimensions: Approx. 70.5 x 113.8 x 98.2mm<br \/>\nWeight: Approx. 295g<br \/>\nMulti flash shooting: Radio and optical transmission<br \/>\nLCD panel: 172 x 72 dot display<br \/>\nPower source: 4 x AA \/ LR6 alkaline batteries<\/p>\n<p>*ISO 100, in meters (Approx)<\/p>\n<p>Speedlite 430EX III<br \/>\nGuide number (Wide Panel): 43 (14)*<br \/>\nDimensions: Approx. 70.5 x 113.8 x 98.2mm<br \/>\nWeight: Approx. 290g<br \/>\nMulti flash shooting: Optical transmission<br \/>\nLCD panel: 172 x 72 dot display<br \/>\nPower source: 4 x AA \/ LR6 alkaline batteries<\/p><\/div>\n<div style=\"color: #000000;\">\n*ISO 100, in meters (Approx)<\/div>\n<p>[ad#img]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Check out the new Canon Speedlite 430EX III-RT and Speedlite 430EX III.
