•
Position the sensor windows on the remote flash units to pick up the light
from the master flash. Particular care is required if the master flash is
mounted on a hand-held camera.
•
Be sure that direct light or strong reflections from the remote flash units do
not enter the camera lens (in [TTL] mode) or the photocells on the remote
flash units ([
q
A] mode). Otherwise light from the flash units may interfere
with exposure.
•
Even if [--] is selected for [Master flash]> [Mode], the master flash may
emit low-intensity timing flashes. These flashes may appear in
photographs taken at short range. This can be prevented by choosing low
ISO sensitivities or small apertures (high f-numbers).
•
After positioning the remote flash units, take a test shot and view the
results in the camera display.
