6. Use the dial [13] to adjust the flash exposure compensation.
This can also be done in camera by changing the flash exposure
compensation.
TIP: You can at all time switch to manual mode and keep the setting from the last TTL
flash. This is extra helpful when you need to lock the flash power and keep it constant.
Note:
TTL is only available in group A-C and group D-F are always manual mode, even if switch
[10] is set to TTL mode (AUTO).
For Profoto A10 Air TTL-S, always use the Protective cap [25] when
flash is not mounted on the camera or Flash stand [19]. Secure with the
locking ring [16].

On-camera use in manual mode

1. Follow step 1-3 above
2. Use the mode switch [10] to select MAN (Manual) mode.
3. Take an image to check the exposure or use the test button [12]
and light meter to measure the exposure.
4. Use the dial [13] to adjust the light output to your preferences.
TIP: To improve efficiency, use TTL for first shot and then switch to manual to lock the
flash power. By doing this you get correct exposure quickly and then you can fine tune
flash power in manual mode.
