Wireless Flash Range
The wireless flash uses a light signal from the flash as a trigger to operate the off-
camera flash unit. Follow the points below when positioning the camera, flash, and
subject.
• Photograph in dark locations indoors.
• If you rotate the flashtube using the bounce-flash function (page 36) so that the
wireless control-signal receiver points toward the camera, it will be easier for the
flash to receive signals from the camera.
• Place the off-camera flash within the gray area in the following diagram.
Distance between camera and subject
(see Table 1)
Distance between flash

(see Table 2)
