vide a light intensity ratio of 1:2 or 2:1.

3600HS (D), 5400HS, 5400xi, or 3500xi.
Wireless Flash Range
The wireless flash uses a light signal from the built-in flash as a trig-
ger to operate the off-camera flash unit. Follow the points below
when positioning the camera, flash, and subject.
• Photograph in dark locations indoors.
• If you rotate the flashtube using bounce-flash function (p. 28) so that
wireless/remote control-signal receiver points toward the camera, it
will be easier for the flash to receive a signal from the camera.
• Install the off-camera flash within the gray area in the following dia-
gram. See the camera’s manual if you are using a DiMAGE digital
camera. See the flash unit manual for details of the distance between
the flash and the subject (Table 2) for all except the 5600HS (D).
