User Manual

shoe to mount NEO to the third party receiver, or the

Rotolight Mini Arm (RL-ARM-MINI, sold separately).

Connect the transmitter on your camera (such as

Godox, Phottix, Sony, Pocket Wizard, etc) and follow

the instructions supplied with your transmitter.

Recommended settings for simple one-light

operation:

1) Set ﬂash power to MAX (or MAX +, if available)

2) Set ﬂash duration to 1/50th (any faster shutter

speed ie 1/100th will be automatically captured)

3) Set colour temp (Kelvin) to midpoint (approx.

4100K – midpoint is indicated by a dot in lower

Right hand corner of the Kelvin display)

Shooting in High Speed Sync

NEO 2 is a High Speed Sync(HSS) capable ﬂash.

High speed sync allows you to utilize the ﬂash of

NEO 2, and synchornize it with your cameras shutter

release, at speeds faster than your cameras native

internal sync speed (typically 1/160th or 1/250th).

This enables you to freeze action, and shoot with

wider apertures for improved subject isolation.

NEO 2 will happily work with any camera and any

trigger/receiver with a PC sync input, however to

shoot in High Speed Sync a) your camera must

itself be capable of HSS (many are not) , and b) you

must use a HSS capable trigger and receiver (most

trigger/receivers are not natively HSS compatible

unless explicity stated).

* PLEASE CHECK THAT YOUR CAMERA AND

TRIGGER EQUIPMENT IS CAPABLE OF HIGH SPEED

SYNC.

NOTE : NEO 2 will ﬂash once for the duration set

shutter interval when syncing in HSS, ensuring that

the complete frame is illuminated. If NEO 2 detects

a ﬂash re-trigger event during a set interval , it will

automatically adjust the duration of the ﬂash to a

shorter interval , to avoid damage occurring to the

LEDs.
