Wireless Flash Control

The EF-X500 can act as a master fl ash using optical
pulses to control fl ash mode and output for remote
fl ash units in up to three groups (A, B, and C). Wireless
fl ash control is available in TTL (

P

60), TTL out-

put ratio selection (

P

64), manual (

P

68),

and repeating fl ash (

P

71) modes.

The fl ash can control remote
fl ash units in up to three
groups (Figure 1), each of
which can contain multiple
fl ash units (Figure 2). The
master fl ash can be includ-
ed in any of the groups or
set not to fi re (

P

55).

The channel for remote fl ash
control can be chosen from
channels 1–4. Separate chan-
nels can be used for diff erent
fl ash systems or to prevent
interference when multi-
ple systems are operating in
close proximity.

Test-fi re the fl ash or take a test shot before the main photo and

add fl ash units if lighting is insuffi

cient. Avoid placing objects

where they might interfere with optical control between the
master and remote units.
