Wireless/Remote Off Camera Flash

Wireless / Remote Off-Camera Flash Control is available with the
Minolta accessory flashes: 5400HS, 5400xi, or the 3500xi. Wireless /
Remote flash allows you to experiment with creative lighting
techniques using off-camera accessory flashes without a tangle of
accessory cords and connectors.
In Wireless / Remote flash mode, the off camera flash is triggered by a
coded signal from the camera’s built in flash when you press the
shutter release button. Another signal stops it once the camera’s TTL
flash meter detects that the proper exposure has been received. You
can also obtain a 2:1 lighting ratio automatically. When selected, the
off camera flash provides 2/3 of the full exposure and the built-in
flash provides the remaining 1/3.

SETTING WIRELESS / REMOTE FLASH MODE

1. Attach the accessory flash (5400HS, 5400xi, or 3500xi) to the

camera and turn both the flash and the camera on.

2. Press the flash mode button, "WL" will appear in the data

panel. The flash is now set for wireless / remote flash operation.

3. Remove the accessory flash, and raise the camera’s built-in

flash. The accessory flash is now ready to be positioned.
