Multi: Stroboscopic Flash
With stroboscopic ash, a rapid series of ashes is red. It can be
used to capture a multiple images of a moving subject in a single
photograph.
You can set the ring frequency (number of ashes per sec.
expressed as Hz), the number of ashes, and the ash output.
Calculating the Shutter Speed
During stroboscopic ash, the shutter remains open until the ring
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 ashes is 10 and the ring frequency
is 5 Hz, the shutter speed should be at least 2 seconds.

To avoid overheating and deteriorating the ash head, do
not use stroboscopic ash more than 10 times in succession.
After 10 times, allow the camera ash to rest for at least 15
minutes. If you try to use the stroboscopic ash more than
10 times in succession, the ring might stop automatically
to protect the ash head. If this happens, allow at least 15
minutes’ rest for the camera ash.
• Stroboscopic ash is most eective with a highly reective
subject against a dark background.
• Using a tripod and a remote control is recommended.
• Stroboscopic ash can be used with“buLb”.
• If the number of ashes is displayed as “--”, the ring will
continue until the shutter closes or the battery is exhausted.
The number of ashes will be limited as shown by the
following table.
