> button to select the flash times“ Turn the Select Dial
to set the number“
● After you finish the setting, press  button and all the settings will be displayed“
Calculating the Shutter Speed
During stroboscopic flash, the shutter remains open until the firing stops“ Use the formula below
to calculate the shutter speed and set it with the camera“
Number of Flashes / Flash Frequency = Shutter Speed
For example, if the number of flashes is 10 and the firing frequency is 5 Hz, the shutter speed
should be at least 2 seconds“
To avoid overheating and deteriorating the flash head, do not use stroboscopic flash more than 10
times in succession“ After 10 times, allow the camera flash to rest for at least 15 minutes“ If you try to
use the stroboscopic flash more than 10 times in succession, the firing might stop automatically to
protect the flash head“ If this happens, allow at least 15 minutes’ rest for the camera flash“

Stroboscopic flash is most effective with a highly reflective subject against a dark background“

Using a tripod and a remote control is recommended“

A flash output of 1”1 and 1”2 cannot be set for stroboscopic flash“

Stroboscopic flash can be used with buLb

If the number of flashes is displayed as
“

Shooting:
Radio
(2.4G)
Transmission
Using a flash (master”slave) with a radio transmission wireless shooting function make it easy
to shoot with advanced wireless multiple flash lighting, in the same way as E-TTL II autoflash
shooting“
The basic relative position and operation range are as shown in the picture“ You can then
perform wireless E-TTL II ”ETTL autoflash shooting just by setting the master unit to “
Positioning and Operation Range (Example of wireless flash shooting)
● Autoflash Shooting with One Slave Unit
● Use the supplied mini stand to position the slave unit“
● Before shooting, perform a test flash and test shooting“
● The transmission distance might be shorter depending on the conditions such as
positioning of slave units, the surrounding environment and whether conditions“
Wireless Multiple Flash Shooting
You can divide the slave units into two or three groups and perform E-TTL II”E-TTL autoflash
while changing the flash ratio (factor)“ In addition, you can set and shoot with a different flash
mode for each firing group, for up to 5 groups“
● Auto Shooting with Two Slave Groups
● Auto Shooting with Three Slave Groups
Wireless shooting using radio transmission has advantages over wireless shooting using optic
transmission, such as being less affected by obstacles, and not having to point the slave unit’s
wireless sensor toward the master unit“

Other Applications
Wireless Control Function
The flash unit is built in with a Wireless Control Port so that you can wirelessly adjust the power
level of the flash and the flash triggering“
To control the flash wirelessly, you need a FT-16 remote control set (on-camera and on-flash)“
Insert its receive end into the Wireless Control Port on the flash and insert the transmit end into
the camera hot shoe“ Settings made on the hotshoe-mounted transmit and receive ends will be
wirelessly communicated to the flash“ Then you can press the camera shutter release button to
trigger the flash“ You can also hold the transmit end at hand to control your off-camera flash“

For full instructions on the use of FT series remote control, see its user manual“
Modeling Flash
If the camera has a depth-of-field preview button, pressing it will fire the flash continuously
for 1 second“ This is called modeling flash“
It enables you to see the shadow effects on the subject and the lighting balance“ You can fire
the modeling flash during wireless or normal flash shooting“

To avoid overheating and deteriorating the flash head, do not fire the modeling flash
for more than 10 consecutive times“ If you fire the modeling flash 10 consecutive
times, allow at least 10 minutes’ break for the camera flash“

The modeling flash cannot be fired with the EOS 300 and Type-B cameras“
Auto Focus Assist Beam
In poorly-lit or low-contrast shooting environments, the built-in auto focus assist beam will
automatically light on to make it easier for autofocus“ The beam will light up only when autofocus
is difficult and get out as soon as the autofocus becomes correct“
If you want to turn off the auto focus assist beam, set the

AF
to
OFF
on the C“Fn settings“
If you find the auto focus assist beam does not light up, this is because the camera
has got a correct autofocus“

Auto focus (AF): The assist beam is lighted on by camera“
Manual focus (MF): The assist beam is lighted on manually“
Turn off the assist beam: Set
AF
to OFF on the C“Fn menu, and the assist beam will be
turned off“
Bounce Flash
By pointing the flash head toward a wall or ceiling, the flash will bounce off the surface before
illuminating the subject“ This can soften shadows behind the subject for a more
natural-looking shot“ This is called bounce flash“
To set the bounce direction, hold the flash head and turn it to a satisfying angle.
0-270° horizontally and -15°-90° vertically

I f the wall or the ceiling is too far away, the bounced flash might be too weak and result in
underexposure.

The wall or the ceiling should be a plain, white color for high reluctance. I f the bounce surface
is not white, a color cast may appear in the picture.
Sync Triggering
The Sync Cord Jack is a Φ3“5mm plug“ Insert a trigger plug here and the flash will be fired
synchronously with the camera shutter“
PC Sync Socket Triggering
Use remote cable to connect the camera and the AD360II-C through its PC sync socket (10),
and the flash will be fired synchronously with the camera shutter“
