Recycling Time and Flash Count
Take AA alkaline batteries (LR6)
as an example:
● Based on new size-AA alkaline batteries.
● The battery level indication on the LCD panel will blink if the remaining battery level is too low to be charged. Please replace the batteries.
Using size-AA batteries other than the alkaline type may cause improper
●
battery contact due to the irregular shape of the battery contacts.
● If you change the batteries after firing many flashes continuously, be
aware that the batteries might be hot.
Use a new set of four batteries of the same brand. When replacing the
●
batteries, replace all four at one time.
● Size-AA Ni-MH or lithium batteries can also be used.
Recycling Time
Approx. 0.1–5sec
Flash Count

III. Using the Camera Flash
1. Power Management
Use ON/OFF Power Switch to power the flash unit on or off. Turn
off if it will not be used for an extended period of time.
You can set the firing frequency (number of flashes per sec.
expressed as Hz), the number of flashes and the flash output.
●Press MODE button so that
< MULTI > is displayed.
●Press the < SET >button to choose
the adjustable projects. (Blinking)
●Press the “-“or “+”button to adjust
the settings.
Calculating the Shutter Speed
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.
Number of Flashes / Flash Frequency = Shutter Speed
For example, if the number of flashes is 10 and the firing frequency
is 5 Hz, the shutter speed should be at least 2 seconds.
2. Power Control
The flash output is adjustable from 1/1 full power to 1/128th power
in 1/3rd step increments. To obtain a correct flash exposure, use a
hand-held flash meter to determine the required flash output.
Press the “-“ or ”+”button to adjust the flash power output.
●M Mode: Set the flash output from 1/1 full power to 1/128th
power in 1/3rd step increments.
●Multi Mode: Set the flash output from 1/4 full power to 1/128th
power in 1 step increments.
●Manual High-Speed Mode: Set the flash output from 1/1 full
power to 1/16th power in 1/3rd step increments.
3. ZOOM: Setting the Flash Coverage
●Set the flash coverage manually to match the lens focal length
from 24mm to 105mm.
●Press the ZOOM button and its settings can be adjusted by
pressing “+”or “-”button.
Note: When setting the flash coverage, the lens focal length
should be covered in case of occurring dark periphery.
4. M Mode
Press Mode Selection Button to enter M mode. In this mode, you
can set the camera flash onto your camera’s hotshoe or trigger to
fire flashes. During shooting, adjust the power output and press the
camera shutter, then the camera flash will fire a flash under the
camera synchronous signal.
5. Multi: Stroboscopic Flash
Press Mode Selection Button to enter Multi mode. With
stroboscopic flash, a rapid series of flashes is fired. It can be used
to capture a multiple images of a moving subject in a single
photograph.
● Stroboscopic flash is most effective with a highly reflective
subject against a dark background.
● Using a tripod and a remote control is recommended.
● A flash output of 1/1 and 1/2 cannot be set for stroboscopic flash.
● Stroboscopic flash can be used with “buLb”.
●
To avoid overheating and deteriorating the flash head, do not use
stroboscopic flash more than 10 times in succession.

6. High-Speed Sync
Press MODE button makes the flash enter manual mode.
●
● High Speed Sync (FP flash) enables the flash to synchronize with
all camera shutter speeds. This is convenient when you want to
use aperture priority for fill-flash portraits.
Note:
●The FP flash function can only work properly with the high-
speed remote control (e.g. Godox product CELLS II).
●High-speed sync function cannot be achieved when the flash is
set on the camera’s hotshoe.
●
Over-temperature protection may be activated after 10 consecutive
high-speed sync flashes, and its recycle time is 10 seconds slower
than the normal time.

when the main flash fires, the same effect as that by the use of
radio triggers.
8. S2 Mode
Press Slave Selection Button to enter S2 mode. In this mode, the
camera flash can function as a slave flash for creating multiple
lighting effects. It is respectively applicable to TTL flash
environment. With this function, the flash will ignore a single
“preflash” from the main flash and will only fire in response to the
second, actual flash from the main unit.
9. Sync Trigger Function

11. Protection Function
Over-Temperature Protection
To avoid overheating and degrading the flash head, do not fire
more than 20 continuous flashes at 1/1 full power. After 20
continuous flashes, allow at least 10 minutes for the camera flash
to cool down.
If you fire more than 20 continuous flashes and then fire more
flashes in short intervals, the over-temperature protection function
will be activated to make the recycling time about 10-15 sec. In
such case, give the camera flash about 10 minutes’ break to return
to normal.
When the over-temperature protection is started, the icon is
shown on the LCD display.

IV. Advanced Application
1. Bounce Lighting
When taking photos, you can point the flash head toward a wall or
ceiling to bounce the light off the surface before illuminating the
subject. This can soften shadows behind the subject for a more
natural-looking shot.
2. Creating a Catchlight
Pull out the reflection card and built-in wide panel from the flash
head at the same time and then push the built-in wide panel back.
With the reflection card, you can create a catchlight in the subject’s
eyes to add life to the facial expression. This function can reach
optimal effect when the flash head is 90° upwards.
3. Use the Wide Panel
Pull out the built-in wide panel to enlarge the flash lighting range,
so as to get more softened and natural lighting effect.
