Please: The number of the photos that can be continuous shot is releated with the output level .Please use the fully charged battery. Ⅸ.The advanced application Reflection flash Bounce flash means to take photos by making flash light head aimed at wall or ceiling and using the light reflected back from the ceiling or wall to light the desired object,so that the shade behind the object can be decreased to get more natural shooting effect .If the wall or ceiling is too far , the bounce flash may be too weak to get enough exposure . The wall or ceiling should be even and white in order to get efficient reflection ;if the reflection surface is not white , color cast may appear in photo. -22- -23- EN EN Set S1/S2 mode S1 Mode: When the flash is in S1 mode, it will work with the first work of the master flash synchronously, with the result consistent with the use of radio slave, To use this mode correctly, the master flash should be set at manual flash and TTL flash system with preflightfunction and the red-reduction function with multiple flashes should not be used . S2 Mode: It is also called“pre-flash cancel mode”. This mode is similar with S1mode,but it can neglect the pre-flash given by TTL flash .Therefore ,it can support the main flash working in TTL mode. In particular, if S1 mode cannot flash correctly and synchronically with your internal flash, you can try to use S2 mode.The following situation shall be avoided when the S1 and S2 modes are used: the red eye reduction function of the main light is used;the order mode(Nikon) or wireless mode(Canon) of the master is used ;the ST-E2 is used as the flash controller. By pressing the < >button to chose S1 or S2 ,that is S1 or S2 mode. These twomodes are suitable to be used as off-camera auxiliary light, so as to create a variety of lighting effects. They are suitable for manual flash environment and TTL flash environment respectively .Under these two modes, the way to adjust the output level is like that in M mode.

Flash Exposure Compensation

You can use the exposure compensation function of the camera to compensate flash output so as to make shooting effect better meet your requirements .You can also make compensation of flash brightness with the (LEFT)(RIGHT) button within the range of +-6ev ,,with the precision of 1/3ev. Every press the button,the compensation setting will be displayed on LCD panel . Rear curtain Sync You can use slow-speed shutter to produce trailing smear for the object and the flash light will flash at the moment when the shutter is going to be shut, which means the rear-curtain sync function . (For the rear curtain sync setting ,refer to your camera manual for setting).You can turn on or turn off the rear curtain sync by pressing the rear curtain sync hotkey on panel of flash. Note :when flash is used as slave unit ,the rear curtain sync function can not be set on the speedlite. Exposure Bracketing FEB The FEB function is set on the camera or speedlite.For the specific setting method ,refer to your camera instructions .After the FEB is set ,after 3 photos are taken ,exposure compensation will be made automatically in the sequence of ,for example ,“normal-under-over”.This function helps you improve the success rate of photo taking . The setting method on the flash :press the (UP)(DOWN) button to adjust the exposure bracketing amount . Note :For FEB,set the camera's drive mode to single shooting.Be sure the flash is ready before shooting. Creating a Catchlight With the catchlight panel, you can create a catchlight in the subject's eyes to add life to the facial expression. Wide-angle diffusion board Pull out the wide-angle diffusion board, push back the reflection board and arrange them as per the figure ,the flash scopes will extent and the flash effect will be softer and more natural. Pull out the wide-angle diffusion board Push back the wide-angle diffusion board FEL Lock(Canon ) To use this function, cover the subject, for which flash exposure will be locked at the center of the viewfinder of camera, press the button (*)of the flash exposure lock, and the flash light will pre-flash and the camera will calculate the appropriate flash output data .Now you have some time for decomposition ,after which ,you can take photo.(The function can be used only when it is supported by your camera.
