Using Your VC-310C as a Wireless Master or Slave
Using Your VC-310C as a Wireless Master or Slave
The VC-310C is equipped with advanced wireless ash functions, allowing you to re the ash remotely while
maintaining full TTL or manual control. In addition, the ash can be set to multiple channels and groups,
affording you a host of creative lighting possibilities.
Using the wireless optical system, you can trigger the ash from up to 49 feet (15.25 m) away. And you have
the ability to use the ash as a master or slave with selectable communication channels (1, 2, 3 and 4), as well
as 3 slave groups (A, B, and C). In addition, there is the capability to set specic exposure compensation or
power level values.
Important terms: Here are the terms you’ll need to be familiar with in order to learn how to work with
multiple wireless ash units.
Master: The master sends information to the slave ashes and controls each of the slaves’ power outputs,
but will not add light to the nal exposure. This can be the camera’s built-in ash, a ash unit mounted on the
camera, or a dedicated wireless controller. Only one master is allowed in a multiple-ash photography setting.
Note that not all cameras and ashes offer master capability.
