Hi Tom and Michael, My Canon 430EZ Speedlite functions in A-TTL mode on my Elan 7E. At least the full-auto A-TTL works, but the distance-warning function does not (just like on every EOS body since the EOS 630). You're not missing much with A-TTL. It can be "simulated" with the FEL flash metering function in E-TTL. Push FEL to activate pre-flash metering in M mode with the shutter set to between 1/60 and 1/125. You have 16 seconds to find the narrowest aperture where the flash ready symbol changes from blinking to steady.
