If you couple the LIVE VIEW facility to the remote flash
operation even the angle from which the photograph can be
captured will be different. As has been said before, the
possibilities offered by the E-3 and its system of accessories are,
indeed, endless. You need, however, to let your imagination
probe beyond the limits of what has hitherto been thought of as
"normal photography" and adapt and push the technology that
has been placed at your disposal with the camera. It is truly a
brave new world where the rules are waiting to be written.
POWER USER TIP: Extended use of LIVE VIEW and/or high-speed
burst modes – particularly in hot climates when many hundreds of
images (500 +) are exposed in a short space of time - may trigger the
camera's internal temperature monitor to shut down the camera for a
few seconds in order to get the sensor back within its operating range.
This is not a malfunction and will be accompanied by a warning on the
display screen saying "Internal Temperature too high". (UMPg 127)
Activate the remote flash system by pressing MENU. Press the
DOWN arrow pad key once and then the RIGHT arrow pad key
once. The second option from the top is the RC MODE. Press
the DOWN arrow pad once to highlight the option and the n the
RIGHT arrow pad once. The highlight will appear to indicate the
option ON.
Now, if you press the OK button, the super control panel will
change to display the remote flash control panel. If you press the
OK button again, the first block next to the group A symbol will
be highlighted. You can now use the input dial or the arrow pad
keys (LEFT/RIGHT) to select from the available modes which
are: OFF, TTL, AUTO, M (manual). Press OK to confirm your
selection of operational mode for the first group of flash units.
(NOTE: The flash units allocated to this group must be set to
GROUP A on the rear of the units themselves.)
