the D flash (see page 6) as the off-camera flash, ensure that the
shutter speed does not exceed the flash sync speed for the camera.
The off-camera flash will not operate if the shutter speed is greater
than the sync speed.
2. Check that both flash units are fully charged.
• The AF illuminator on the front blinks, and
on the rear is lit, when
the 5600HS (D) is fully charged.

• The method used for test flash differs with the camera used (eg.
press the AE lock button, or spot AE lock button). See the camera
manual for details.
• If the test flash doesn’t fire, change the position of the camera, flash,
and subject, or point the wireless/remote control-signal receiver
towards the camera.
4. Check again that both flash units are fully charged, and
press the shutter-release button to take the photo.
