I am currently shooting with a Canon T2i and running a Canon 580ex flash without any siginificate issues. The problem I am having is that I cannot figure out how to set the flash to Second Curtain Sync. I have read that the 580ex requires the Master, and Wireless capabilities be disabled in order to utilize this feature which I have done (from what I can tell). No matter what I do however when I push the |>>> button that should put it into second curtain mode, it only enables/disables the high speed sync capability. I am hoping someone out there with some experience can guide me through resolving this issue. I usually shoot on Manual Mode with my camera so I don't feel that should be a problem. I have also gone through the menus on my camera, and though there is a flash menu that allows some capapbility to change the settings, most are display only (including the second curtain sync).

I'm hoping someone out there in DPChallenge can help me.

Thanks.

Have you tried switching modes, with the flash off the camera. As if it does switch modes, the problem will be a camera setting. Then go from there...
