Setting the fl ash output level, the number of repeating fl ashes,
and the frequency (Hz) per frame
The number of flashes (Times) represents the number of times the flash fires
per frame.
The frequency (Hz) represents the number of times the flash fires per second.
The number of flashes is the maximum flash firing number. Because the
Speedlight fires during a single exposure, the actual number of repeating flashes
per frame falls below the one set as the shutter speed increases or the number
of flashes per second decreases.
Referring to the table below, set the flash output level, the frequency, and the
number of repeating flashes separately for each picture.
