To shoot with a colour filter or custom RGBWW colour
Titan can flash in any colour temperature (3000-10,000 Kelvin), whilst enjoying up to 200% more power (1 stop),
than in regular continuous mode*, and considerably preserving battery power. Alternatively, Titan can flash in any
of the 16.7Million RGB colours, or 2500 filters, for optimized battery life.
To shoot in an RGB colour, simply choose the desired filter or create a custom colour in the RGBW / HSI / XY /
FILTER menus found on the HOME page. Once you have chosen the desired colour, then go to the FLASH page,
and your custom colour will be automatically transferred.
*Please note : The additional flash power boost is provided when the Titan flash is in“CCT” mode in traditional
‘white light flash’ ie 3000-10,000 Kelvin. In RGB or filter mode, the flash will be at the same maximum ouput as in
regular continuous mode, but will considerably increase battery life by dramatically reducing power consumption.
Rotolight/Elinchrom HSS transmitter - Recommended
To shoot in High Speed Sync, you will need an HSS wireless transmitter. Titan™ features an in-built Elinchrom
Skyport 2.4Ghz wireless HSS receiver, capable of High Speed Sync flash (HSS, 1/8000th. For best results, use the
Rotolight HSS Transmitter (RL-HSS-TX) by Elinchrom available now for Sony, Canon, Nikon, Olympus, Panasonic
and Fujifilm cameras, available from from www.rotolight.com and Rotolight retailers globally. Capable of
controlling up to ten Rotolights, in four groups, the Rotolight HSS transmitter also provides wireless control of Titan
brightness and colour temperature in both flash and continuous modes (Rotolight HSS transmitter only), and can
trigger CineSFX™, X-FX (Exposure FX) and Designer Fade™.
Shooting in High Speed Sync
Titan™ will happily work with any camera and any trigger/receiver with a PC sync input, however to shoot in High
Speed Sync a) your camera must itself be capable of HSS (many are not), and b) you must use a HSS capable
transmitter and receiver (most are not natively HSS compatible unless explicitly stated).
NB – When triggered, Titan™ will flash once for the duration set shutter interval when syncing in HSS, ensuring that
the complete frame is illuminated, without banding or gradation. If Titan™ detects a flash re-trigger event that
overlaps the next flash event during a set interval, it will automatically adjust the duration of the flash to a shorter
interval, to avoid damage occurring to the LEDs.
