Flash shooting in Advanced Wireless Lighting

7 Confirm that all the ready-lights of the master and remote flash units are on, then press the h button on the master flash unit to test fire the units.

• The master flash unit fires first, then the remote flash units in group A fire, followed by those in group B.

• If a certain remote flash unit does not fire, change the setup by moving the remote unit closer to the subject or redirect its light sensor window toward the master flash unit, then test fire the new setup.

You can check the illumination before actually taking pictures using the Modeling illuminator (p. 45).

8 Finally confirm the aperture and flash shooting distance just as in TTL flash shooting, then shoot.

Refer to page 17 for TTL flash shooting.

Flash operation can be confirmed by the ready-light or the beeping sound (p. 67).
