6 C/f: Frame the photograph, focus, and shoot. In radio AWL, the flash-ready indicator will light in the camera viewfinder (0 10) or flash information display when all flash units are ready. The status of radiocontrolled units can also be viewed by selecting Flash control > Radio remote flash info in the photo shooting menu. A Optical AWL Position the sensor windows on the remote flash units to pick up the light from the master flash (particular care is required if the camera is not mounted on a tripod). Be sure that direct light or strong reflections from the remote flash units do not enter the camera lens (in TTL mode) or the photocells on the remote flash units (qA mode), as this may interfere with exposure. To prevent low-intensity flashes emitted by the master flash from appearing in photographs taken at short range, choose low ISO sensitivities or small apertures (high f-numbers) or rotate the flash head on the master flash to point upwards. After l positioning the remote flash units, take a test shot and view the results in the camera monitor. A Flash Compensation The flash compensation value selected with the W (M) button and subcommand dial is added to the flash compensation values selected in the wireless flash options menu. Y icons blink in the top control panel and viewfinder when a flash compensation value other than ±0 is selected for the master or remote flash units in TTL or qA mode. 215
