Just bought this camera
Flash function settings are grayed out to TTL and first curtain sync. I Cant change these at all, which prevents me from shooting HSS
Flash C.Fn settings don't work at all: this menu cannot be displayed. incompatible flash or flash power is turned off.
I use Westcott FJ flash system.
Solved! Go to Solution.

You're flash system is NOT Compatible with Canon's Speedlite Control Menu. It may be compatible with an older camera but not a new one. If the firmware can be updated by the manufacturer you can check with them.

Its more than likely a software incompatibility did this flash setup work on your last camera.

Its just a software incompatibility these things happen a lot with 3rd party items.

You'll need to contact Wescott FJ as I mentioned above. I know nothing about this brand.
