MULTI FLASH MODE

While the shutter is open, the flash will fire repeatedly. By doing so a series of images of the subject will be exposed in one frame. A dark background with a bright subject shows more effectively in this mode. It is possible to set the firing frequency between 1Hz and 199Hz. Up to 90 flashes can be fired continuously. The maximum number of flashes varies, depending on the flash guide number and firing frequency settings. (Please refer to table3 on the last page).
