The remote/ wireless
flash may not detect
the control signals if it
is placed behind the
subject.

Place the camera and flash unit within a 5 m radius of the subject

The accessory flash is controlled by a light signal from the built-in
flash. Although the built-in flash fires, it does not add to the exposure,
but simply controls the accessory flash. The position of the camera
and flash is critical to control the lighting of the subject.
