Auto FP high-speed sync
High-speed flash synchronization up to a compatible camera’s highest
shutter speed is possible.
• Auto FP high-speed sync mode is automatically set when the shutter
speed exceeds the camera’s highest flash sync speed.
• This is useful even in daylight when a wider aperture is required to
achieve shallow depth of field to blur the background.
• Auto FP high-speed sync also operates in Advanced Wireless Lighting.
• Available flash modes are i-TTL, auto aperture flash with monitor pre-
flashes, non-TTL auto flash with monitor pre-flashes, distance-priority
manual flash and manual flash.
• For the guide numbers for auto FP high-speed sync, refer to
“Specifications” (0H-29).
