12.3 EV Stop
The increment of EV stops in most of the flashes available on market is of 1/3 level. By
extracting the flash profiles, V6 offers two more increment levels, 1/2 and 1/10, which allows
photographers to adjust the lighting output of flash to a finer level. In addition to it, V6 offers 1
EV increment level for swift operation.
(Fig. 18)
To adjust EV stop:
1. Switch on V6 in TX mode and press
Menu
. Turn the selection dial to <EV STOP>.
Press
OK
and turn the dial to the desired increment level (1/3, 1/2 or 1/10). Press
Menu
to leave.
2. The selected EV stop will be memorized upon switching off. Switching on V6 again will
apply the saved power ratio setting.
3. Pushing the selection dial once will change the EV stop to 1 EV. It is useful for fast
power adjustment to the highest or lowest level. Pushing the selection dial once again
will get back to the original power ratio you have selected in the
Menu
.
12.4 LoPower
At LoPower mode, the relative power output of a flash triggered by V6 is roughly equal to 1/256.
The difference between 1/128 and 1/256 power output may be hardly detected by flash meter,
but the extremely short firing duration helps freeze faster-than-lightning moments which is
ideal for high speed photography
