About Quick Flash

The Quick Flash function enables flash shooting while the flash-ready lamp is green (before the flash is fully charged).

The guide number is 1/2 to 1/6 of the full output, but it is useful for shooting with a faster recycling time at a short shooting distance. Set the drive mode to single shooting. You cannot use Quick Flash when continuous shooting, FEB, manual flash or stroboscopic flash is set.

About Auto Power Off

During radio transmission wireless master flash shooting (p.59) or during linked shooting (p.73), the time until auto power off takes effect is 5 min.

Quick Flash cannot be used when the flash mode is set to <b>.
