Optic S1 Secondary Unit Setting
In M manual flash mode, press <S1/S2> button so that this flash can
function as an optic S1 secondary flash with optic sensor. With this
function, the flash will fire synchronously when the main flash fires,
the same effect as that by the use of radio triggers. This helps create
multiple lighting effects.
Optic S2 Secondary Unit Setting
Press <S1/S2> button so that this flash can also function as an optic
S2 secondary flash with optic sensor in M manual flash mode. This
is useful when cameras have pre-flash function. With this function,
the flash will ignore a single "preflash" from the main flash and will
only fire in response to the second, actual flash from the main unit.
S1 and S2 optic triggering is only available in M manual
