Troubleshooting
Flash does not fire
Ensure the flash is powered on and has sufficient battery charge. Check that the flash is properly seated in the camera's hot shoe or that the wireless connection is active and correctly configured. Verify that the camera's shutter is open and not in a state that prevents flash firing (e.g., bulb mode without HSS).
Inconsistent exposure in TTL mode
Check for any ambient light affecting the TTL sensor. Use the flash's exposure compensation feature to adjust output. Ensure the camera's exposure settings (aperture, shutter speed, ISO) are appropriate for the scene. Clean the camera's hot shoe contacts and the flash's contacts.
Wireless connection is unstable or not working
Ensure both Master and Receiver units are set to the same channel and group. Check that the distance between units is within the 100m range. Remove any potential sources of interference (e.g., other 2.4GHz devices). Try restarting both units.
Flash recycles slowly
Ensure the battery is fully charged. Using lower power settings will result in faster recycle times. If the issue persists at full power after a full charge, the battery may be degraded.
Touchscreen is unresponsive
Try turning the flash off and on again. Ensure your fingers are clean and dry when interacting with the touchscreen. If the issue persists, contact customer support.
