https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Speedlite-Flashes/470EX-AI-and-R8-Semi-automatic-mode-does-not-work/m-p/490885#M5157 <P>I have a R8 with firmware 1.3. It does not seem to be compatible with my 470 EX – AI. Is anyone using this flash with the R8? The semi automatic mode does not work at all. It only will shoot straight forward. Any advice would be appreciated.</P> Wed, 31 Jul 2024 00:59:34 GMT twilliam 2024-07-31T00:59:34Z https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Speedlite-Flashes/470EX-AI-and-R8-Semi-automatic-mode-does-not-work/m-p/490885#M5157 <P>I have a R8 with firmware 1.3.

Then it won't move at all.</P> Wed, 31 Jul 2024 00:25:28 GMT https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Speedlite-Flashes/470EX-AI-and-R8-Semi-automatic-mode-does-not-work/m-p/490893#M5158 deebatman316 2024-07-31T00:25:28Z
