1、To avoid overheating and degrading the flash head, do not fire more than 20 continuous flashes.
After 20 continuous flashes, allow a rest time of at least 10 min.
If you fire more than 20 continuous flashes and then fire more
flashes in short intervals, the inner overheating prevention function may be activated to make
the recycling time about 8 to20 sec. If this occurs, allow a rest time of about15 min. and the flash
will then return to normal.
2、Using size-AA batteries other than the alkaline type may cause improper battery contact due to
the irregular shape of the battery contacts
3、Change the batteries should be aware below:
3.1、If you change the batteries after firing many flashes continuously,
3.2、Use a new set of four batteries of the same brand. When replacing the batteries, replace all four
at one time
3.3、Size-AA Ni-MH or lithium batteries can also be used.
4、If you set the flash coverage manually, make sure it covers the lens focal length so that the picture
will not have a dark periphery.If you use a commercially-available sync cord to connect the camera
to the Speedlite's PC terminal, set the flash zoom manually.
5、During stroboscopic flash, the shutter remains open until the firing stops. Use the formula below to
calculate the shutter speed and set it with the camera.
After exceeding the number of
flashes,multi flash immediately
.
be care that battery may
become warm or hot.
.
Ⅲ. Caution:
Number of flashes ÷ Firing frequency = Shutter speed
For example, if the number of flashes is 10 and the firing frequency is5 Hz, the shutter speed should
be at least 2 sec.
Large and high clear LCD Panel

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.

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. For the setting method ,refer to your camera instructions.)

With high-speed sync(FP flash),The flash can synchronize with allshutter speeds. This is
convenient when you want to use aperture priority for fill-flash portraits.
if you set a shutter speed that is the same or slower than the camera'smaximun flash sync
speed,
will not be displayed in the viewfinder.
With high-speed sync,the faster the shutter speed,the effective flashrange will become. Check
the LCD panel for the effective flash range.

Auto Zoom for Image Size
EOS DIGITAL cameras have one of three image sizes.The lens'effective focal length will differ
depending on the camera's image size, the speedlite automatically recognizes the EOS
DIGITAL camera's image size and automatically sets the flash coverage for lens focal lengths
from 24mm to 105mm.

The entire LCD panel blinks.
1.The wide panel has been pulled out for bounce flash, Retract the wide panel.
The periphery or bottom of the picture looks dark.
1. When you set the flash coverage manually, the setting was a higher number than the lens
focal length, resulting in a dark periphery.Set the flash coverage that is a lower number than the
lens focal length or set it to auto zoom.
2. If only the bottom of the picture looks dark, you were too close to the subject. If the subject is
closer than 2 m/6.6 ft, tilt the flash head downward by 7° (bounce flash).
The flash exposure is underexposed or overexposed.
1. There was a highly reflective object (glass window, etc.) in the picture. Use FE lock.
2. The subject looks very dark or very bright.
Set flash exposure compensation. For a dark subject, set a decreased flash exposure. And for a
bright subject, set an increased flash exposure.

使用闪光灯之前,请阅读此使用说明书和相机手册以熟悉闪光灯的操作。
1、为防止闪光灯灯
过热并损坏,请勿进行20次的连续闪光或10次的频闪闪光。连续闪
光后,要让闪光灯至少冷却15分钟。如果您在闪光次数超过后马上进行多次闪光,内
部的防过热功能可能会被激活,使充电时间变成8至20秒左右。如果发生这种现象,请
让闪光灯冷却约15分钟,闪光灯便会恢复正常。
2、因为电池触点的外形不规则,使用碱性电池以外的AA型电池可能会导致电池接触不良。
3、更换电池时需注意以下情况:
3.1、如果在连续闪光多次后更换电池,小心电池可能会发热或烫手。
3.2、请使用4节相同品牌的新电池。更换电池时,请同时更换4节。
3.3、您也可以使用AA型镍氢(Ni-MH)或锂电池。
4、为确保其覆盖镜头焦距,需手动设置闪光覆盖范围,这样照片就不会出现阴影边缘。
如果使用市售的同步电缆连接相机和闪光灯的PC端子,需手动设定闪光覆盖范围。
5、在频闪模式,到闪光停止为止快门应保持开启状态。使用下面的公式计算快门速度,
然后用相机进行设置。

按下主控单元的测试闪光按钮,测试闪光是否正常;如果从属单元不闪光,请检查本产品
对着主控单元的角度及其到主控单元的距离。
S1/S2模式设置
通过按 >按钮选择
,即进入S1或S2模式。这两种模式适合作为离机副灯使
用,以创建多种照明效果,它们分别适合于手动闪光环境和TTL闪光环境。在这两种模式
下调整输出亮度与M模式方法一样。

有预闪的TTL闪光系统,也不应使用具有多次闪光的红眼减轻功能。
S2模式:又被称为“预闪光取消模式”,该模式与S1模式类似,但它能忽略TTL闪光灯
发出的预闪,因此可以支持工作在(TTL)模式的主闪光灯。特别地,如果S1模式无法与您
的内置闪光灯正确同步闪光,您可以尝试使用S2模式。请注意使用S1 、S2模式时避免以

使用外置电源盒
购买外置充电盒,将其连接至闪光灯的充电接口,闪光之后,充电盒将对闪光灯进
行充电,满足更高回电需求,使用前需设置C.Fn-12菜单。
高速连拍
旅行家闪光灯可以支持高速连拍功能,请将相机设置为连拍方式,再进行拍摄即可,
使用高速连拍时请关闭声音提示功能。请注意:能连拍的照片数量与设置的亮度有关,
请使用电量充足的电池。
反射闪光
反射闪光是指通过将(闪光灯头)指向墙壁或
天花板,借助天花板或墙壁反射回来的光照亮
物体来进行拍摄(俗称“跳闪”)。这样可以
减轻被摄物体背后阴影,获得更自然的拍摄效
果。如果墙壁或天花板太远,反射闪光可能太
弱导致曝光不足。墙壁或天花板应该是平坦的,
白色的,以利于高效的反射,如果反射表面不
是白色的,照片上可能会出现偏色。
眼神光板
使用眼神光板,您可以在被摄体的眼睛中创建眼神光以使面部表情更加生动。
广角扩散板
拉出(广角扩散板)推回(反射板),并按示意图摆放,闪光范围将会扩大,同时闪光
效果将更加柔和自然。
九、高级功能应用
