Calculating the Shutter Speed

During stroboscopic ash, the shutter remains open until the ring

stops. Use the provided formula to calculate the shutter speed

required to capture the full sequence of ashes:

Number of ashes / Firing frequency = Shutter speed

For example, if the number of ashes is 10 and the ring frequency is

5 Hz, the shutter speed should be at least 2 sec.

Note:

● Stroboscopic ash is most effective with a highly reective

subject against a dark background.

● Using a tripod and a remote switch is recommended.

● A ash output of 1/1 or 1/2 cannot be set for stroboscopic

ash.

● Stroboscopic ash can be used with “buLb”.

To avoid overheating and deteriorating the ash head during

stroboscopic ash, do not use stroboscopic ash more than

10 times in succession.
