Default Canon 550EX-2.nd curtain sync

I cannot find how to make Canon 550EX sync on 2.nd. curtain - with my
Canon1DMk.II - which of course is set to sync on 2.nd. curtain.

Anyone with some instructions?

Regards,
Carsten Arnholm

Your flash should sync whenever the camera tells it to. If the camera
is set to trigger the flash on 2nd curtain, that should be all it takes.
Works fine on my DRebel and 420EX.

Press the + and - buttons at the same time until the three triangles symbol
shows up in the upper right hand corner of the LCD display.

Your flash should sync whenever the camera tells it to. If the camera
is set to trigger the flash on 2nd curtain, that should be all it takes.
Works fine on my DRebel and 420EX.


Which rebel? I have a 300d and a 420ex and i can't get that to work...

300D. Rear-curtain sync is enabled in the hacked firmware.

I have the russian firmware installed and the option can be enabled but it
doesn't work(as noted on the website)...are u using the newer "undutchables"
firmware? If not have you actually confirmed that is it working in 2nd
curtan mode?
