Qflash “5d-R” series flashes provide professional quality lighting for both
digital and film cameras. Quantum’s proprietary QTTL
®
Adapters dedicate
Qflash seamlessly to your camera. Many features of Qflash5d-R will
enhance your lighting control when used with non-dedicated/manual
cameras.
While powerful and extremely versatile, Qflash operation is intuitive and
straightforward. Advanced features for most lighting needs are accessible
as required.
We highly recommend reading this entire instruction manual.
Whether or not you require all of Qflash’s capability now, you will
want to know it exists when the need arises.
Series Qflash 5d-R adds wireless preflash TTL and wireless remote auto
to the Qflash features. These features apply when Qflash 5d-R is used in
combination with Dw-R series QTTL Adapters, FreeXWire receivers
FW7Q and FW8R, and transmitter FW9T or transceiver FW10w. If you
own FW10 transceivers, they can be upgraded to become FW10w.
Qflash 5d-R models used with Quantum’s proprietary Dw-R Adapters
allow you to create ratios with multiple remote Qflashes in the wireless
TTL mode. Older D and Dw series Adapters can be upgraded to become
Dw-R adapters.
See www.qtm.com for costs for these upgrades. D, Dw, or Dw-R series
QTTL adapters are optional for specific makes and camera models.
Please consult your dealer or www.qtm.com for the latest availability.
