above formula. (Please refer to table1 on the last page)
HIGH SPEED SYNC (FP) FLASHHSS
When you take a picture with an ordinary flash, you cannot use a shutter speed faster than the camera’s
synchronized speed because the flash must fire when the shutter curtain is fully open. The FP flash keeps firing,
while the shutter curtain is running. Thus you can use a shutter speed faster than the synchronized speed.
ۋ This function cannot be used with Maxxum / Dynax ST Si, QT Si,
500si, 400 Si, 300Si, xi series, i series or Vectis series cameras.
1. Choose the Flash Mode by using MODE button (“TTL” or “M” modes
can be used).
2. Press the + or button and make the indicate
indicator appear
on the LCD panel.

4. When the Ready Light of the flash is illuminated, the unit is ready for use.

page)

display from the LCD panel.

MULTI FLASH MODE
While the shutter is open, the flash will fire repeatedly. By doing so a series of images of the subject will be
exposed in one frame. A dark background with a bright subject shows more effectively in this mode. It is
possible to set the firing frequency between 1Hz and 100Hz. Up to 90 flashes can be fired continuously. The
maximum number of flashes varies, depending on the flash guide number and firing frequency settings.
