Wireless Flash Shooting: Radio (2.4G) Transmission
Using a flash (master/slave) with a radio transmission wireless
shooting function make it easy to shoot with advanced wireless
multiple flash lighting, in the same way as i-TTL autoflash shooting.
The basic relative position and operation range are as shown in the
picture. You can then perform wireless i-TTL autoflash shooting just
by setting the master unit to <
i-TTL
>.
Positioning and Operation Range
(Example of wireless flash
shooting)
●
Autoflash Shooting with One Slave Unit
●
●
Use the supplied mini stand to position the slave unit.
Before shooting, perform a test flash and test shooting.
● The transmission distance might be shorter depending on
the conditions such as positioning of slave units, the
surrounding environment and whether conditions.
Transmission distance is about 100m.
You can divide the slave units into two or three groups and perform
i-TTL autoflash while changing the flash ratio (factor). In addition,
you can set and shoot with a different flash mode for each firing
group, for up to 5 groups.

Wireless Multiple Flash Shooting
Wireless shooting using radio transmission has advantages over
wireless shooting using optic transmission, such as being less affected
by obstacles, and not having to point the slave unit’s wireless sensor
toward the master unit. The main functional differences are as follows:

Other Applications
Wireless Control Function
The flash unit is built in with a Wireless Control Port so that you can
wirelessly adjust the power level of the flash and the flash triggering.
To control the flash wirelessly, you need a FT-16S
remote control set (on-camera and on-flash).
Insert its receive end into the Wireless Control
Port on the flash and insert the transmit end into
the camera hot shoe. Settings made on the
hotshoe-mounted transmit and receive ends
will be wirelessly communicated
to the flash. Then you can
press the camera shutter
release button to trigger
the flash. You can also hold
the transmit end at hand to
control your off-camera flash.
For full instructions on the use of FT series remote control, see its user
manual.
Sync Triggering
The Sync Cord Jack is a
Φ
3.5mm plug. Insert a trigger plug here
and the flash will be fired synchronously with the camera shutter.
