Using Your VS-570F as a Wireless Manual Flash

For even greater creative control, you can set the output levels of your remote ash units manually.

Using the optical slave feature, the VS-570F can be set to re whenever it detects a signal from the

masterash. This works optically—when the VS-570F “sees” another ash ring, it will instantaneously re

along with it.

Setting the remote ash units manually: To set a VS-570F ash unit to function as a slave with the output

level selected manually, follow these steps:

1. In Manual mode, use the up and down buttons to select the power output (1 through 1/64).

2. Press the Mode button once to enter Slave mode. The slave mode [

] icon will appear on the

LCD display.

3. Set the slave mode as desired (See Setting the slave mode on page 29).

4. If desired, adjust the ash coverage angle by pressing the Zoom button repeatedly.

5. Make sure that the master ash on your camera is on and set to the appropriate mode. If you don’t want

the master ash to illuminate a subject in front of the camera, tilt the head upward.
