Positioning the Slave Cameras Do not use multiple flash units. Although slight, there is a difference in the shutter release timing which may cause out-of-sync flash firing and inadequate exposure. Linked shooting is not possible when master and slave cameras are set to [Mirror lockup] [Enable] or [Enable:Mirror down w/ s]. During linked shooting, when you press the AE lock or depth-of-field preview button, the camera adjusts the focus and meters as if you had pressed the shutter button halfway. Once you have established a connection between the master camera and slave cameras, the settings are retained even after you replace the batteries. If you will no longer use a slave camera in linked shooting, set [Communication mode] to [Disconnect] on that slave camera. Any cameras compatible with linked shooting, when they have WFT series transmitters attached, can be used as slave cameras, regardless of model. 73

Positioning the Slave Cameras
Do not use multiple flash units. Although slight, there is a difference in the shutter release timing
which may cause out-of-sync flash firing and inadequate exposure.
Linked shooting is not possible when master and slave cameras are set to [
Mirror lockup
]
[
Enable
] or [
Enable:Mirror down w/
s
].
During linked shooting, when you press the AE lock or depth-of-field preview button, the camera
adjusts the focus and meters as if you had pressed the shutter button halfway.
Once you have established a connection between the master camera and slave cameras, the
settings are retained even after you replace the batteries.
If you will no longer use a slave camera in linked shooting, set [
Communication mode
] to
[
Disconnect
] on that slave camera.
Any cameras compatible with linked shooting, when they have WFT series transmitters attached,
can be used as slave cameras, regardless of model.
