Equipped for flash photography in a wide variety of situations,
the Speedlite 600EX II-RT has a guide number of 197 ft. (60m) at
ISO 100 to help achieve the lighting you desire. It offers 20mm
to 200mm coverage, and when the extendable wide panel is pulled
out, flash coverage moves as wide as 14mm. Plus, to maximize
power and minimize energy consumption, the Speedlite 600EX II-RT
can be directed to zoom in accordance with the camera’s image
sensor size (full-frame and APS-C).

The Speedlite 600EX II-RT offers significant improvements in
continuous flash performance. Engineered with a combination of
highly heat-resistant material, a revised optical design for
suppressing gain in the panel’s temperature, plus a redesigned
interior structure, the Speedlite 600EX II-RT sees speed gains of
1.1 to 1.5x* self-powered, and 1.5 to 2.0x* when used with the
optional Compact Battery Pack CP-E4N. An improved flash control
algorithm and a redesigned Quick Flash function help to minimize
unfired flashes for more reliable, continuous operation.

For comprehensive lighting setup on the go, the Speedlite 600EX
II-RT offers a number of options for both wireless flash and
multi-camera operation. When used with a compatible flash, or
flash driver ed on camera, the Speedlite 600EX II-RT can
serve as a slave unit in an optical setup, at distances of up to
49.2 ft./15m when indoors and 32.8 ft./10m when outdoors. In
addition to optical wireless flash, the Speedlite 600EX II-RT is
capable of radio transmitted wireless flash where the flash units
need not be in visual proximity to one another and transmission
distance is extended up to 98.4 ft./30m. Among cameras with the
Speedlite 600EX II-RT attached, setups of up to 16 flash and
camera units can be synchronized to take photographs
simultaneously, making multi-angle and multi-directional
photography setups simple. Additionally, remote shutter release
can be achieved when the Speedlite 600EX II-RT is used as a slave
unit with a compatible EOS digital SLR camera.
Multiple flash system allows control of up to five groups of
flashes.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
In addition to traditional optical wireless transmission, the
Speedlite 600EX II-RT facilitates radio-controlled, two-way
wireless transmission between up to 5 groups. Communicating on
2.4 GHz frequencies, the Speedlite 600EX II-RT does not have the
same directional limitations of traditional wireless optical
transmitters. Where other wireless signals can be interrupted by
physical obstacles, radio controlled systems excel. Fifteen
transmission channels are available, selectable manually or
automatically, and radio transmission IDs can be set to prevent
misfiring in the event of signal interference on the same
channel.
Dust- and water-resistant body for reliable operation in various
environments.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The Speedlite 600EX II-RT is designed to maintain the high
standard of dust- and water-resistant performance found on
Canon’s EOS-1D series of cameras. Its exterior seams are sealed
to help maintain airtightness, while a dust- and water-resistant
adapter ed to the bottom of the flash surrounds and locks
around the camera’s hot shoe for a nearly impenetrable seal. By
maintaining the overall weather-resistant surface of the EOS-1D
series, the Speedlite 600EX II-RT can bring flash photography to
more places, in more environments, without compromise.
New features include a flash-readiness indicator on display
panel, button and dial operation and manual flash output for ease
of operation.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The Speedlite 600EX II-RT features a highly legible GUI for
steady and efficient multi-flash control. Design refinements such
as a new flash-readiness indicator on the display panel help
ensure that settings are easily confirmed with a glance. New
combination button and dial operations not only speed up setting
changes and manual flash control, but also help avoid unintended
changes through inadvertent presses of buttons for confident,
convenient operation.
New, specially designed accessories include a bounce adapter,
SCF-E3 color hard-type filter sets and a soft case.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The Speedlite 600EX II-RT comes with a number of key accessories
designed to help position, diffuse and tone its output for
optimal results. The Bounce Adapter SBA-E3 widens and diffuses
bounce lighting, achieving a soft effect especially in shadow
areas. The SCF-E3 color hard-type filter sets include the Color
Filter SCF-E3OR1, which is effective in merging ambient
incandescent light with the flash’s bluish output for warm,
atmospheric results. These accessories also include the Color
Filter SCF-E3OR2, which is useful for balancing out the red
fogging typical of interior lighting, for more natural, realistic
light. Both filters attach and detach with ease for quick and
smooth set-up. The Speedlite 600EX II-RT is also bundled with a
soft case that is designed not only to hold all its flash
accessories, but can also store the flash unit with the filter
attached and has a belt loop for speedy access on the go.
Dot matrix LCD panel for enhanced display information, including
flash mode, C.Fn and P.Fn for quick and convenient visibility.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The Speedlite 600EX II-RT’s dot matrix LCD panel graphically
displays detailed flash modes, Custom and Personal Function
settings and status indicators for both master and slave units,
enabling wireless configurations with more detailed information
than previous flashes. A new flash-readiness indicator means the
flash status can be confirmed in an instant, and backlit
operation buttons mean high visibility in both bright and dark
environments.
15 Custom Functions and 6 Personal Functions for creative
flexibility.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
To accommodate any number of shooting styles, the Speedlite 600EX
II-RT has 15 custom functions for incredible flexibility. Options
include flash exposure compensation, flash exposure bracketing
controls, modeling flash, AF assist control, power and energy
saving features, beep and much, much more. Personal functions,
like LCD panel illumination color and Master/Slave
configurations, are also easily set on the Speedlite 600EX II-RT.
Full swivel, 180° in either direction.
--------------------------------------
The Speedlite 600EX II-RT’s flash head is designed for easy
bounce flash, in any direction. The head can be angled 90° up, 7°
down and can rotate 180° left and right. A bounce lock with
release button helps things stay in place. Additionally, the
Speedlite 600EX II-RT features a catchlight panel to create catch
light in the eyes of the subject for a more expressive look.
