When the camera's shooting mode is set to a fully automatic mode or an Image
•
Zone mode, the operation in this chapter is no available. Set the camera's
shooting mode to P/Tv/Av/M/B (Creative Zone Mode)
The V860IIIC attach to the camera is called the transmitter unit, and a V860IIIC
•
that is wirelessly controlled is called the receiver unit.
You can also wirelessly control the V860IIIC set as the receiver unit with the
•
transmitter X1T-C (sold separately). For details on setting the transmitter unit
functions, see the transmitter's instructions.
Using a flash (transmitter/receiver) with a radio transmission wireless shooting function
make it easy to shoot with advanced wireless multiple flash lighting, in the same way as
E-TTL II autoflash shooting.
The basic relative position and operation range are shown in the picture. You can then
perform wireless E-TTL II autoflash shooting just by setting the transmitter unit to
<ETTL>.
