Sync Triggering

• The Sync Cord Jack is a Φ2.5mm plug. Insert a trigger plug here
and the flash will be fired synchronously with the camera shutter.
• To avoid overheating and deteriorating the flash head, do not fire the
modeling flash for more than 10 consecutive times. If you fire the modeling
flash 10 consecutive times, allow at least 10 minutes' break for the camera
flash.
Auto Focus Assist Beam
In poorly-lit or low-contrast shooting environments, the built-in auto
focus assist beam will automatically switch on to make it easier to
autofocus. The beam will light up only when autofocus is difficult and
will switch off as soon as the autofocus is set.
If you want to turn off the auto focus assist beam, set "AF" to "OFF" on
the C.Fn settings.
• If you find the auto focus assist beam does not light up,
• this is because the camera has got a correct autofocus.
• The auto focus assist beam does not operate while Continuous AF is
used in the camera focusing mode
• Depending on your camera, the AF beam may not fire

Bounce Flash

By pointing the flash head toward a wall or ceiling, the flash will bounce
off the surface before illuminating the subject. This can soften shadows
behind the subject for a more natural-looking shot. This is called
bounce flash.
To set the bounce direction, hold the flash head and turn it to the
required angle.

Catchlight Panel

With the catchlight panel, you can create a catchlight in the subject's
eyes to add life to the facial expression.

Other
Applications
• If the wall or ceiling is too
far away, the bounced flash
might be too weak and
result in underexposure.
• The wall or ceiling should
be a plain, white color for
high reflectance. If the
bounce surface is not white,
a color cast may appear in
the picture.
