Wireless remote control ash photography
External ash units that offer a remote control mode and are designated for use
with this camera can be used for wireless ash photography. The built-in ash
can independently control up to three groups of remote ash units. See the
documentation provided with the external ash units for details.

Set the remote ash units to RC mode and place them as desired.
Turn each ash unit on, press the MODE button, and select RC mode.
Select a channel and group for each ash unit.

Select [ON] for [# RC MODE] in X Shooting menu 2 (P. 108).
The super control panel switches to RC mode.
You can choose a super control panel display by repeatedly pressing the INFO
button.
Select a ash mode (note that red-eye reduction is not available in RC mode).

# Caution
The built-in ash can not be used as a light source in RC mode.
We recommend using a single group of up to three remote ash units.
Remote ash units can not be used for second curtain slow synchronization or anti-
shock exposures longer than 4 seconds.
If the subject is too close to the camera, the control ashes emitted by the built-in
ash may affect exposure (this effect can be reduced by reducing the output of the
built-in ash by, for example, using a diffuser).
