NOTE
The shutter speed to be set on the camera is calculated in the following formula.
!
Caution
When using an external power pack, you may take continuous frames of
multi-exposure pictures. To enjoy the extreme feature without overheating
problem, it is suggested to take an interval of 3 seconds between shots
and maybe longer time after 200 shots.
Flash source may be heated up and may cause serious damage to the
flash unit if it is overly operated.
Please note that the basic operation is however controlled by the main
batteries(battery magazine) in the flash unit and when the main batteries
are exhausted, flash control system does not work. Replace the batteries
when recycle time becomes longer than 20 seconds by main batteries only.

There is no limit of the number of slave flashes to set at one time.
It is however recommended to set maximum 3 pcs in one group, as it may
cause interference between flashes depending on the photographic conditions.
At Remote flash mode, MG8000 is set automatically for manual zoom setting and
its reflector position is set for 24mm to cover the wider range of illumination. It is
possible to set the desired flash coverage angle manually by select button
.
Use a flash stand to set the slave flash. The stand provides the flash shoe and
can stay either on the flat surface, or be placed on the tripod or light stand by
the screw provided at the bottom.
When setting MG8000 to slave flash, it is recommended to cancel the auto-off
setting or set it to 60 minutes at the Custom Settings - Ref. page 30.
Refer your flash instruction manual for this function, which may differ according
to the flash model.
Remote flash (Slave flash)
1.The slave flash does not shoot its light directly into the camera lens.
2.The wireless flash sensor of the slave flash is not blocked.
3.The slave flash is usually not placed behind the master flash.
4.In the daylight synchronization, the sensor of slave flash could be
saturated by sunlight and its response will be extremely reduced. In this
case, the wireless TTL function may not result in success. Making a shade
to cover the sensor of slave flash is one of the ideas to help the situation.
Where is the Slave flash sensor?
Slave flash sensor is provided behind the front panel of MG8000 at the
name of Nissin DIGITAL. The sensor’s sensing angle to respond to the
incoming light is about 100 degree.
Place the slave flash in consideration to;
