If three slave units are all set to < A > in terms of slave ID, these slave units will
be controlled as if they were one camera flash in slave group A.
●
When setting <
RATIO A:B C
>, group A, B and C will fire a flash
synchronously; when setting<
RATIO A:B
>, group C will not fire a flash.
●
If shooting under the situation that group C is toward the main shooting
subject, over exposure might occurred.
●
In some EOS film cameras that support E-TTL autoflash, you cannot perform
multiple flash wireless shooting with a flash ratio setting.
●
The flash ratio of 8:1 to 1:1 to 1:8 is equivalent to 3:1 to 1:1 to 1:3 (1/2 step
increment).
●
The details of the flash ratio settings are as follows.
8:1
4:1 2:1 1:1 1:2 1:4 1:8
