Purpose and functions
The radio-control system primarily serves to trigger flash devices which have
been uncoupled from the camera within the field of photography. Using an
optional accessory, the radio-control system can also trigger Studio flash
devices. The range totals a max. of 300 metres.
This radio-control system consists of two parts - a transceiver to send and a
receiver to receive. The transceiver is located within the camera’s hot shoe
where it transmits signals by radio wave to synchronously trigger the receiver on
the slave flash device.
In addition to triggering the flash, the transceiver can also manually control
other wirelessly connected flash devices provided that compatible cameras and
flash devices are used. The radio-control system also supports TTL flash
metering and manual flash in group mode. A maximum of three remote groups
(A, B, C) can be controlled. The receiver connected to the slave flash device is
assigned to one of three remote groups (A, B or C). Each remote group can then
in turn consist of one or several receivers with connected slave flash devices.
The transceiver features an Auto channel and 15 remote channels. The receiver
features an Auto channel and 3 remote channels.
A flash device can also be mounted o
n the transceiver sending the signals.
As a receiver, the transceiver can be used to trigger slave flash devices and
Studio flash devices in conjunction with an additional transceiver. As a
receiver, it can also be attached to the base or to Studio flash equipment.
