Wireless optical flash
When using a built-in flash or an external flash connected to the
camera’s hotshoe as the MASTER with an additional SLAVE flash in
an indoor environment, light reflecting off of walls and ceilings may
cause overexposure. Please adjust the angle of the flash heads as
needed.
S1 and S2 modes can be used outdoors up to a distance of 15m,
dependent on conditions.
Note: Please ensure there are no barriers between the MASTER and
SLAVE lights when using optical SLAVE modes. Also ensure that the
SLAVE unit is not in direct sunlight or other brightly lit environments
as this will impact on the flashgun’s ability to detect the MASTER
flash firing and trigger accordingly. If the speedflash is in direct
sunlight, try turning the unit so that the sensor faces away from the
sun, and rotating the flash head to face the desired direction.
