The Speedlite's zoom setting will be set automatically to 24mm. It is possible to
change the master unit's zoom setting. However, note that the master unit
transmits wireless signals to the slave unit(s) with the preflash. Therefore, the
flash coverage must cover the slave unit's position. If you change the master
unit's zoom setting, be sure to test the wireless flash operation before shooting.

firing button to turn on the slave unit.
