• Setting the Flash Ratio for Three Slave Units:

A, B and C

With three wireless slave units, slave unit A is the main flash, slave unit B is

the fill flash, and slave unit C is a supplemental flash. Thus, slave units A and

B serve to illuminate the subject for a proper exposure while slave unit C
illuminates the background to eliminate shadows. Even with three slave units,

the E-TTL autoflash system controls the flash to obtain a correct exposure.

In addition to setting the A;B flash ratio, a flash ratio of (A:B):C can also be

set. This is done by adjusting slave unit C’s flash exposure compensation

amount.
