Zone mode, the operation in this chapter are no available. Set the camera’s
shooting mode to P/Tv/Av/M/B (Creative Zone Mode)
• The V1C attach to the camera is called the transmitter unit, and a V1C that is
wirelessly controlled is called the receiver unit.
• You can also wirelessly control the V1C set as the receiver unit with the
transmitter X1T-C (sold separately). For details on setting the transmitter unit
functions, see the transmitter’s instructions.
Using a flash (transmitter/receiver) with a radio transmission wireless shooting function
make it easy to shoot with advanced wireless multiple flash lighting, in the same way as
E-TTL II autoflash shooting.
The basic relative position and operation range are shown in the picture. You can then
perform wireless E-TTL II autoflash shooting just by setting the transmitter unit to
<ETTL>.
