Multiple radio wireless flash photography with flash power level ratio control

You can perform wireless flash photography while controlling the lighting ratio among a maximum of 3 wireless groups (A, B, and C) of flash units including the commander unit. Before you perform multiple wireless flash photography, be sure to specify the flash unit as the commander unit or the receiver unit.

  • Commander unit: HVL-F60RM/HVL-F60RM2/HVL-F46RM or a radio wireless commander

  • Receiver unit (off-camera flash unit): HVL-F60RM/HVL-F60RM2/HVL-F46RM or a radio wireless receiver

: Commander unit (CMD)

: Wireless receiver

: Receiver unit (RCV)

  1. Press the Fn button on the commander unit, select [RATIO CONTROL] on the Quick Navi screen, and then select [ON].
  2. Press the Fn button on the commander unit, select the wireless group (A/B/C) for which you want to change the flash power level ratio on the Quick Navi screen, and then specify the ratio.

    As shown above, when the flash power level ratio for TTL flash photography is displayed as [4:2:1] on the LCD panel, the flash unit in each group fires with a fraction of the total flash power: 4/7, 2/7, and 1/7, respectively.

Hint

  • The commander unit fires as a member of the wireless group A. If you do not want the commander unit to fire, select(CMD flash setting) on the Quick Navi screen and select [OFF].
