Very Important Tips
For consistent exposures with your digital camera and Qflash.
• Always do a custom white balance before shooting
• When shooting TTL use Aperture or Shutter priority or Manual
camera modes
• Set your metering area to center weight, partial metering
instead of matrix or multi-spot metering.
• Your Qflash provides 150 watt-seconds of power compared to
50 watt-seconds of a typical shoe mount flash. When shooting
6 ft. (2m) or closer, at ISO 200 or greater, with a wide open F/#,
you must always diffuse the light. Otherwise your subject will
be over-exposed.
