FEATURES OF THE MACRO FLASH

one of the flashtubes, push the corresponding switch to the side with the "ON" label.

While the two flashtubes are on, you can get a homogeneous, shadowless illumination for your

target. If you turn off one of the flashtubes, shadow could be created, which gives the subject a

three-dimensional feel.

Auxiliary Lights

The auxiliary lights are located at the top and bottom of the macro flash. These lights could help

you focus in dark place in AUTO mode.

We suggest that you use a macro lens and choose an aperture as small as practically possible

to maximize the depth of field. The exposure mode for your camera should be set to either

Aperture Priority or Manual. These modes will allow proper exposure and good focusing at

macro ranges.
