- In this video, David Flores checks out the brand new Canon Speedlite 470EX-AI. It's the first intelligent flash, designed to measure the distance between the subject along with the surrounding area, to automatically determine the most flattering to bounce flash.

WHAT?!?!?! This left me baffled! This saves so much time and helps you focus on what's more important. I love it!
David is a great communicator and teacher. I've learned so much in just a couple of his videos compared to the many many others I have been watching.
This vid was so helpful its all i need
This is absolutely wonderful! Hopefully they'll make it faster for event photographers who change angles much faster on location than a photographer does in a studio.
I bought it when it went on sale, earlier this year.. I no longer need my TTL or bracket but carry them just in case I have to use my 430
This is awesome. I’m getting one ASAP!
Pretty cool flash! I'll have to check it out!
Love your photography
Nice you told so good , I also love flash photography
canon is getting better , this is great
i can't wait to get this flash!
So cool. I would like to see if it could take the weight of magmod accessories and still move that fluidly and also if the front sensor would go bonkers when a grid or gel is placed on it.
This flash opens up some great possibilities. Imagine an off camera light that follows the subject’s subtle movements...like following the subject’s nose. I think Canon just innovated again with this speedlite. I would love to play with one. So Canon, please send one my way 😉
So dope to be honest, we have to move towards the future cannot be stuck in the past.
This is crazy. Amazing. Only I miss some front white leds for catch light, because you can't use bunce card anymore.
I'm getting one, just as soon as Yongnuo clone it and slash the price ;)
Long live Yongnuo!
Its $155...
Well damn Canon!
Amazing
Crazy!
This is cool 🙂
Excelent feature
Wich camera is use this
APS and FULL FRAME....?
so can i use this in full auto mode would this be great to use at night cause i don't want to use the pop up flash ya see
it's cool that canon is experimenting with flashes and lenses/mounts. here's hoping for some body innovation in 2019
Just bought this speedlite yesterday just for USD 155 in an amazing deal!!
you can SEE that the girl wants one! lol cool gear
Does this intelligent flash have an advantage over the other speedlight flashes, even in the outdoors, where there's nothing to bounce the flash on??
The Auto-Bounce function is more suitable for indoor use where you might have a surface to bounce off of more easily.
Is this flash compatible with Canon 5D Mk iii? I'm not sure why when I set to FULL AI.B mode the motorized flash head will simply return to its straight-on position when I press the camera’s shutter button halfway down. Canon said it was compatible but having issues with the Full mode.
We're sorry to hear that you're having trouble with the flash. Yes, this flash would be fully compatible with the 470EX-AI. What we suggest in this case would be to e-mail us directly to askbh@bhphoto.com so we can troubleshoot the issue further. Thank you.
Wow! Is this Speedlite compatible with a Canon EOS 2000D? And if not what is a custom friendly speedlite for a 2000D?
Yes, the 470EX-AI is compatible with the Canon EOS 2000D.
Does it work off camera?
Probably not I think you would need the camera for ttl
Would this work with a diffuser , e.g. gary fong ?
A Gary Fong flash diffuser may be used on the Canon 470EX-AI Speedlite Flash if you wish to soften the flash output as many of the new Gary Fong flash diffusers are universal fit to connect onto a variety of flash head sizes. However, if you are trying to use the Auto Intelligent Bounce feature, it will not work with a diffuser. The Auto Intelligent Bounce works by using a laser next to the flash head to measure the distance from your camera to the subject and to the ceiling. Placing a diffuser on the top of the flash head blocks the view of the laser from making an accurate measurement, so the Auto Intelligent Bounce feature will not work with the diffuser. When using a diffuser, you would set the AI feature to .
canon 6D/My new Canon speedlite 470ex ai is showing a camera sign with a circle when I press the AI.B button. This is happening in the AI-F fully automatic mode. It is working fine for semi-automatic or zero degree modes. Ideally, when we press the AI.B button with AI- F fully automatic mode, the button should show blue light. This should subsequently have the flash find the bouncing angle automatically. In my case the camera sign with a circle stricken off comes and the bounce angle doesn't change.
Does anybody know about this? Is it something that I am doing wrong or the flash could be defective?
We're sorry to hear about the trouble you're having. We invite you to contact us via Live Chat today before 2PM ET or on Sunday at 10AM ET so we can go over the issue in greater detail.
what if there is no cieling ?
How does this shorten the learning curve when you’re not learning where to position the flash for the correct bounce and it’s doing it for you?
You always have the option to use the manual mode and set the flash position yourself if you are trying to practice learning how to use and position your flash. However, if you are not used to setting the flash position for bounce flash, I would recommend using the automatic mode and looking at the position the flash is choosing for your subject distance and the height of the room. Then you can place the flash in manual mode and see what effects you get from other positions. Automatic mode is a benefit that you can use in addition to the semi-auto and manual mode, and using all together can assist you in your learning curve. You simply have to pay attention to what is going on and what position the flash is choosing, and practice on your own in manual mode.
this is excellent, funny and creepy
how to used extraction flash with 5d mark iv i have 470ex-ai flash how to do
Please e-mail your question to askbh@bhphoto.com so we can assist you better. Thank you.
Canon innovating? That’s new.
Can you use this flash with canon m50 mark 2??
Yes, this speedlite is compatible with the Canon M50 Mark ii
Does this work with a rebel canon sl3?
Yes, the Canon 470EX-AI is compatible with the Rebel SL3.
What about off camera flash? Does it work?
I contacted Canon USA with your inquiry. Canon states that while the flash will fire when attached to the OC-E3 Off Camera Shoe Cord or when it is configured to be triggered optically, the *AI bounce* feature is _not designed_ to work in those situations. For the AI Bounce feature to work, the flash will need to be attached directly to a compatible camera (EOS cameras released in the second half of 2014 or later).
This chart provides more details about which cameras are fully compatible with that feature:

Would this work in an outdoor setting? Say someone standing on train tracks trying to get light on them but keep the background dark enough where it’s shadows aren’t ruined
It will work outdoors. Be aware of the guide number and ISO settings: Guide Number 154.2' / 47 m at ISO 100 (105 mm Position): >Mark
@@BandH but No AI Bounce. Can't bounce up to the sky. =)
You have to be in shutter priority tv to have this work. P A modes didn’t work for me. This is like old time flash. Got to see how to do fill-in flash. Just got the flash and played around for 10 minutes.
Be sure to set the camera to "Auto-Intelligent Bounce Mode" More quesions? Please e-mail us at askbh@bandh.com. >Mark
I have a cannon 80D. I put flash to F and pressed the AIB button. Nothing happens. A popup on the flash display opens and says "!WIDE PANEL" What am I doing wrong?
We're sorry that you're having trouble. We invite you to contact us today via Live Chat on our website until or call us at 1-800-606-6969 until 5PM ET so we can troubleshoot.

Khg có ai giới thiệu Đèn này Dùng loại Pin xạc như thế nào ? Và Pin Chụp được Bao nhiêu Tấm thì Xạc lại.
Although this flash does not accept an external battery pack, you can use the Panasonic Eneloop Pro Rechargeable AA Ni-MH Batteries with Charger (2550mAh, Pack of Four)
, BH # PAKJ17KHCA4A. Canon rates the battery life to give approximated 115-800 flashes on a set of AA batteries.
does it shot on manues mode also
Yes the 470EX-AI is capable of manual flash control as well.
Where is that catch light in her eyes coming from?
Does it have the hss
Yes the Canon 470EX-AI offers high speed sync.
What battery does it use?
The Canon 470EX-AI uses AA batteries. A good set to use is the Panasonic Eneloop Pro Rechargeable AA Ni-MH Batteries with Charger (2550mAh, Pack of Four), B&H # PAKJ17KHCA4A.

This would save a good amount of time for me....
Will this kind of flash work well with canon M50?
The Canon Speedlite 430EX III-RT is a great option, B&H # CA430EX3.

Works perfectly with the m50
Will this work with canon rebel t6?
I heard this flash consumes 30% more battery when using this "autobounce" feature.. I don't know man...
compatible with canon 2000d?
Yes the 470EX-AI will work with the Canon EOS 2000D (T7).
B&H Photo Video so why on the flash data sheet is it written that with canon 2000d and 4000d it is not compatible?😅
I find it very surprising and a bit disconcerting that many times,m the head faces backwards
Calvin Chann flashing a bit backwards -> the light looks a bit more natural on the subject. I looks strange to me too 😅
Flash backwards depends on shutter duration and ambient light... but its a great way to spread light and no 'deer in the headlight look'
Profoto is definitely going to be "borrowing" this idea
The model's Instagram?
Nikon Sony and the rest have something to learn from this
That flash is nice but I need better 4K and dynamic range. I own the Canon 5Dmk iii and iv.... I love my camera..... I want usable 4K as an option
Photographer David Flores? As opposed to fish monger David Flores? Glad you cleared that up first thing in the video.
Still a good video sir. :) Thanks for always giving good info...photographer David Flores.
...David Flores....
I don't get why it uses AA batteries why not use the same type of battery as a camera.
I don't see this feature to be useful in a studio session. Maybe at events when you need to change from horizontal to vertical at a fast pace, and even then I think I should be having to wait for the flash to move...probably I'll be faster moving it manually. Looks pretty cool but there is no rocket science in knowing how to bounce a flash.
we are in the future
She's waiting
This flash creeps me out :D :D .. wtf
Nobody can beat My 0$ paper sheet with masking tape on My old Minolta flash! Not even with motors!
I don’t know, kind of cute cool fancy feature, but time saver????? I can roll-push-twist manually 10 times faster!
In some shots, exactly here in this video, take 2 seconds!
Let say, interesting feature. But what about failures? Mechanical complexities? Durability? Drops? Battery life? I still don’t get it....
Call me old man, but still....motorized flash??? Like a flashing broom, or Bluetooth shovel:)))
BMR Studio Yo, how does it look like.
Nice toy but not necessary to get the job done.
Nikon: *POKE*
So why hire you haha
blackduck5054 becauseowning a Ferrari doesn't suddently make you a great drivier...
First impression ~ a gimmick.
This would be ideal for in the club. as long as you can tweak flash output ...like manual at 1/8th power and shutter drag...AWESOME.
Man, pretty soon there will be no skill required to be a photographer.
What a horrible world we live in where more and more people are getting access to tools and gear to make their pictures better and help them enjoy photography more.
It still takes a lot of skill, and creativity to actually stand out, noo worries, it just makes life easier.
There will be no skill required operate a camera, which is a good thing, people will have to only get good in the creativity part.
Creativity is surely dying out!
Lets not forget that this thing costs as much as the average camera purchased by someone with no real interest in photography but just getting one to do some snapshots
Seems like a gimmick
AlergicToSnow not when you are switching portrait landscape all the time.
This is the perfect flash for all amateur camera owners who have no time to learn how to use a flash properly. Congratulations Canon, you've invented the first IDIOT proof flash.
Feels more like an As Seen On TV gimmick.
Man killing the men, tecnology is beautiful , but is putting the human been in the last step of the human food chain.
As already stated - gimmick.
how much did canon paid this ad?.... in 3:54 ..the flash was mounted to camera... and the output was lighted from her right . the light was so soft, even the fall off of the shadows was strong.... dude i was not born yesterday... u cant get that kind of lighting from a mounted flash even bouncing..u will get a lot of light spill... trying to impress buyers with their new rotating flash :) CANON CEO... u should resign ... watch a7 III sony just announced
Not impressed....sorry it’s a gimmick
Serious photographers won't fall for this. They shoot with their camera in manual and not Auto, A, S or P mode . Flash in manual mode and not TTL. They don't like their gears thinking & deciding what is best for each shot.
You are right, it's a bloody toy.
Leonides Quiason are you serious?
Bounce flash is routinely shot in ETTL, ask Joe Buissink, Denis Reggie and the ones who make a living off bounce photography. Camera in manual but flash in ETTL.
But ppl say sony is great, those cameras are packed with techy stuff like eye tracking an such.
Pretty cool, but how lazy do you have to be and still call yourself a photographer? And you learn absolutely nothing about flash with this gimmick..but...to each his own I guess
You loved using flash but you were talking about how you dissapointed by harsh direct flash
Are you joking ???
How come this guy become role model by famous B&H ?
B&H can do better cause they knew all about Quantum and Godox, this looks like a TOY for pros !
This is just another level of built in flash in a different style, its fun to watch someone beside you using this TOY, bzzz ... bzzz ... bzzz ...
For lazy people.... whats the different with older version? Still can bounce the flash... lol
just another selling gimmick.
That’s the dumbest flash I’ve ever seen.
Please, do not fall for this silly thing; spend your money on more important thing for your photography. Bouncing light is the easier thing to learn and dominate. You do not need an expensive gear for that. Some one has to stop this crazy spending stupidity.
Canon keeps doing crap, so Sony has more customers.
