Placement example
•
In this placement example, flash C is placed to erase the shadow of the subject that flashes A
and B will create.
• The recommended number of wireless flashes for each group is three or less.
• If the subject is too close, signal flashing may affect the exposure.
If you set [Communication Light] to [LOW] or lower the output with a diffuser or similar product,
the effect will be reduced.
