5.0
Owner's of the Quantum Instruments Camera Flash QFX5d-R gave it a score of 5.0 out of 5. Here's how the scores stacked up:
22
14.1 QTTLw - Wireless TTL mode
QTTLw mode gives exposure control of all Qflashes to your camera’s pre-
flash evaluative TTL metering system. Both Local (on-camera) and
Remote Qflashes will produce the same exposure. The Fill ratio can be
adjusted on the QTTL adapter (or on the camera, if available). However,
use only one Fill compensation at a time.
Set the camera modes: Choose manual, aperture priority, or shutter
priority on your camera. Program mode may be selected, although the
camera will make decisions that reduce your control of lighting.
14.1.1 A Local Qflash is optional.
If a local Qflash is attached to
the camera, Press Mode I, the
Up J/Down L until “QTTL” or
“QTTLw” appears on the display.
Note: “QTTLw” will appear after the
QTTL adapter has established com-
munication with the camera. This occurs when the camera shutter is
pressed 1/2 way.
14.1.2 Set up the Remote Qflash(s)
Connect a FreeXWire receiver to the
remote Qflash(s). FreeXWire model
FW7Q connects directly to Qflash;
models FW8R or FW10w require an
FW31 cable for connection.
Press Mode I on the Remote Qflash, then press the Up J/Down L but-
tons until the display shows “Linked to Local”.
14.2 QTTLwR - Wireless Multiple Flash Ratio TTL mode
QTTLwR mode provides the photographer with the ability to set three
zones of flash exposure, each with different amounts of exposure offset
from the camera’s TTL system. The three available flash zones are : Local,
Group R1, Group R2. Any number of Qflashes can be employed in each
of the 3 groups. For example, an on-camera flash could be set 1.3 stops
down (Local), two main flashes on the left to +1 stop (Group R1), and a
hairlight to –2 stops from the camera TTL exposure (Group R2). The actu-
al settings could be whatever you wish within +/- 3 stops.
