Linked Shooting with Radio Transmission
Setting the focus mode switches of the lenses attached to the slave
cameras to <
MF
> and taking the picture with manual focusing is
recommended. If focus cannot be achieved with autofocus, linked
shooting is not possible with the corresponding slave camera units.
There is a short time lag between the release of the slave camera units
and the release timing of the master camera unit. Perfectly simultaneous
shooting is not possible.
You can fire the Speedlite during linked shooting when P.Fn-07-1 is set
(p.88), but the appropriate exposure may not be obtained or uneven
exposure may result if you fire multiple Speedlites at the same time
during linked shooting.
When [
Flash firing
] in [
External Speedlite control
] or [
Flash control
]
is set to [
Disabled
] (p.42), linked shooting cannot be performed.
When performing linked shooting with a Live View image displayed and
P.Fn-07-0 set (p.88), set [
Silent LV shoot.
] on the master camera unit
menu to [
Disabled
]. If [
Mode 1
] or [
Mode 2
] is set, the slave camera
units will not be released.
The transmission distance may be shorter depending on the conditions
such as the positioning of slave flashes, the surrounding environment,
and weather conditions.
The linked shooting function is the similar function as the linked shooting
featured by the WFT series of wireless file transmitters. However, linked
shooting cannot be performed in combination with the WFT series.
Moreover, the release time lag differs from linked shooting performed
using the WFT series.
Linked Shooting Using Live View Function
Linked shooting in Live View status is not possible when the Speedlite set to
P.Fn-07-0 is attached to one of the cameras below set as the master camera
unit.
Perform linked shooting after switching Live View shooting to viewfinder
shooting or set the Speedlite to P.Fn-07-1.
