WIRELESS/REMOTE OFF-CAMERA FLASH CONTROL

1. Position your camera and 3500xi flash unit using the

information on this page. If you are using a flash unit
other than the 3500xi off camera, refer to the
instruction manual for that flash to determine the
aperture, camera to subject distance, and the flash
to subject distance.

flash, and wait again for
both flashes to charge.
