Setting of the remote channel
The same remote channel must be set on the slave flash unit as on the
master or controller flash unit!
• With the remote slave mode activated, press the button combination „Select“
until „CH“ (= remote channel) flashes in the display.
• Apply the setting desired with the buttons ( + ) and ( - ). Selection of group 1,
2, 3 or 4 is possible.
The setting takes effect immediately. After about 5 seconds the display stops flas-
hing and the setting is saved automatically. After activation of the remote slave
mode, „ “ appears in the display. In addition, the slave group (GROUP) selec-
ted and the remote channel (CH) are shown.
Testing remote flash mode
• Place the slave flash units in the desired positions for the shot. Use flash unit
mounting foot W-F127 to set up the slave flash unit.
• Wait for all of the flash units involved to become flash ready. Once the slave
flash units are flash ready, the AF measuring beam ቭ will blink.
• Press the manual firing button ቤ on the master or controller flash unit to fire a
test flash. The slave flash units will respond in succession, according to slave
group, with a test flash. If a slave unit fails to fire a test flash, check the settings
for remote channel and slave group. Correct the position of the slave flash unit
so that it is able to receive light from the master flash unit.
The flash mode is transmitted automatically by master or controller. When
the flash unit functions as master in the cordless remote system, the acti-
vation of the modelling light also activates the modelling light of slave
flash units

9.3 Flash bracketing series („FB“)
A series of flash exposures FB (flash bracketing) can be carried out in the TTL
flash modes ( , E , E HSS; see 7.1). A flash bracketing series consists
of three successive flash shots with different flash exposure correction values:
• The first shot is carried out without correction value.
• The second shot is made with a minus correction.
• The third shot is made with a plus correction .
• After the third shot, the flash bracketing series is automatically deleted.
A flash bracketing series can only occur if the camera supports the setting
of a manual flash exposure correction on the flash unit (see ch. 8 and the
camera’s operating instructions)! Otherwise the shots will be made
without correction values!
Setting procedure
• Press the button combination „Select“ until „FB“ flashes in the display.
• Apply the setting desired with the buttons ( + ) and ( - ). The possible correction
values range from 1/3 to 3 apertures in one-third aperture increments. The
correction value will always be shown positively.
The setting takes effect immediately. After about 5 seconds the display stops
flashing and the setting is saved automatically.
For the first shot of a flash bracketing series „FB“ and „A“re shown in the
display. For the second shot „FB“, „B“ and the minus correction values are
displayed. For the third shot „FB“, „C“ and the plus correction values are
displayed. After the third shot, „FB“ is deleted from the display and the flash
bracketing series is deactivated.
It must be reset for another flash bracketing series!
