1.2 Cactus V6 – Core Concept
Like human, every flash has its own fingerprint which we call a
Flash Profile
. By pre-installing
the Flash Profile in the V6 system, it is capable of controlling power of various flash models
wirelessly. We have included more than 20 Flash Profiles of the most popular Canon and
Nikon models. With this unique feature, photographer could remotely control flash power of
various flash models, even of different brands!
(We will include more flash profiles in later firmware updates.)
For flash models that have not been included in the profile list,V6 could still work with it by
learning its Flash Profile. Check section 7.1.2 for the eligibility of flash models that work with
V6.
Be it built-in or obtained from the learning program, the Flash Profile stored in V6 could virtually
commands the flash to produce ANY power level within the maximum output, even exceeds
what the flash menu allows you to do:
1.
Finer increment scales
: V6 could adjust the power level of flash to 1/10 EV
step, a much finer increment level than the flash menu itself allows (see
Section 12.3 for setting up EV stop).
2.
Extremely short firing time
: In LoPower mode, V6 can fire flashes for a
very short duration of time at extremely low power level (roughly equal to
1/256), beyond the standard flash power range. (see Section 12.4 for
enabling LoPower output).
3.
Benchmark light intensity output in different flashes
: V6 benchmarks
the light intensity output of different flash models in your set up and
command them to fire at the same intensity of light (see Section 12.2 for
adjusting absolute power).
