Wireless flash shooting

There are two ways to use the wireless flash. One way uses a light signal
and the other uses a radio signal to communicate with the flash. The flash
attached to the camera must be the controller in light signal flash shooting
and a Wireless Radio Commander (sold separately) is required for radio
signal wireless flash shooting. For details on how to set each method, refer
to the instruction manual of the flash or the Wireless Radio Commander.
