26 Use the mini stand (tripod socket provided) to prop up the slave unit. Use the bounce feature to swing the slave unit’s flash body so that the wireless sensor faces the master unit. Indoors, the wireless signal may also bounce off the wall so there is more leeway in positioning the slave unit(s).
27 Flash exposure compensation and other settings set with the master unit will also be automatically set in the slave units. Thus, you need not make settings on the slave unit(s). Wireless flash with the following settings can be done in the same way as with normal flash shooting.
