About Quick Flash

Quick flash enables a flash to be fired before flash-ready, when the pilot lamp is still green.

Although the Guide No. will be 1/6 to 1/2 that of the full output, quick flash is effective for near subjects and when you want a shorter recycle time. Set the drive mode to single shooting. Quick flash cannot be used in the continuous shooting, FEB, manual flash, and stroboscopic flash modes.

Quick flash can also be used during continuous flash shooting. (C.Fn-06 p.27)

About Auto Power Off

To save battery power, the power will turn off automatically after a certain period (approx. 1.5 min. to 15 min.) of idle use. To turn on the Speedlite again, press the camera’s shutter button halfway. Or press the Speedlite’s test firing button.

Auto Power Off can also be disabled. (C.Fn-01 p.27)

A test flash cannot be fired while the camera’s operation timer 4or 0 is active.

The Speedlite’s settings will be retained in memory even after the power is turned off. To retain the Speedlite’s settings after you replace the batteries, turn off the power and replace the batteries within 1 minute.
