Connecting the Strobe

CAUTION

Some housing are not compatible with fiber-optic cable.

When you use this strobe, connect the strobe to the camera 

(housing) with a fiber-optic cable (optional). Using a built-in 

slave sensor, this strobe is triggered by sensing the light from 

a digital camera's built-in flash. If the fiber-optic cable is not 

used, depending on the shooting conditions the strobe may 

either not fire, or not obtain DS-TTL flash exposure compensation.

Insert the fiber-optic cable's 

connector into the fiber-optic 

cable socket (slave sensor) of 

the strobe until it stops

Connect the fiber-optic cable's 

connector to the socket in the 

housing

2

Secure the fiber-optic cable 

with the fiber-optic cable hook

When the housing is not equipped 

with the socket, attach the optional 

strobe mask (A) to the flash window 

of the housing, and then connect 

the fiber-optic cable (B).

When inserting the fiber-optic cable 

into the socket for additional strobe, 

the strobe will not fire correctly.  

Please refer to page E-16 for 

details.
