Camera Settings
Any camera setting that works with an external
speedlight will be a good place to start. Consult the
owner’s manual for your camera when in doubt.
Typically, settings similar to below should be used:
Start with Single Frame Modes - Single, multiple-
exposure, or special effects. Don’t start with
multiple fps shooting, bracketing, panorama,
and video modes as they may disable flash.
Use Standard Flash Modes - Forced, 2
nd
Curtain,
or Slow Synchro. For your convenience it is
suggested not to use Suppressed Flash: instead
use the RoboSHOOT

Flash Enable/Disable
buttons for this.
Flash Exposure Compensation – The camera and
App provide flash compensation settings. They
are additive. Use whichever you find most
convenient. We recommend against using
compensation provided on the speedlight itself.
Shutter Speed – Most current X series cameras
support up to 1/180s and leaf shutters up to
1/200s flash active. The RoboSHOOT devices
easily cover this range.
The most creative results are usually achieved in
Aperture Priority, Shutter Priority, and especially
Manual Camera Modes.
