16.4 Group Sequence
There may be some situations in which you would like to f ire the slave groups in a
very short sequence:
y
Post-production of high dynamic range (HDR) photos: In burst mode,
photographers can take two pictures of the same scene with contrasted flash
power levels very quickly. The resulting pictures can be very handy in the post-
production of HDR photos.
y
Evaluating the individual contribution of the slave groups: Taking a series of
pictures in burst mode will allow you to review the contribution of each slave
group individually.
y
Speed up the flash cycle: When you need to f ire a series of flashes at high
power levels, assign two or more flashes to different groups and adjust them to
the same power level. Alternately f iring the flashes will let the capacitors
recharge during the longer interval, ensuring enough charge for the next high
power output.
The V6 IIs offers two group sequence modes for selection:
A-B-C-D: The first trigger in a series will f ire group A, then group B, and so on. The
fifth trigger will f ire group A and start the cycle again. Another series will restart at
group A when there is no triggering event in 2 seconds.

AB-CD: The first trigger in a series will f ire group A and B together, then group C and
D. The third trigger will f ire group A and B, and start the cycle again. Another series
will restart at group AB when there is no triggering event in 2 seconds.
