Manual Flash/Stroboscopic Flash Setting on a Slave Unit

You can directly operate the slave unit to manually set the manual flash or stroboscopic flash. This function is called individual slave. This is convenient when, for example, you use the Speedlite Transmitter ST-E2 (sold separately) to perform wireless manual flash or stroboscopic flash.
