from the incorporated flash or another flash unit and releases the DAF-320 flash to
fire simultaneously. In case the picture results achieved in S1 mode are not
satisfactory, please try to work with mode S2.
SLAVE FUNCTION S2 (NO TTL)
Modern TTL flashes fire one or more pre-flashes shortly before the main flash is
fired. In order to release the DAF-320 flash in slave mode simultaneously with the
main flash, the photocell must ignore the pre-flashes. For this purpose, use the
S2 mode. Press the MODE button until S2 appears on the LCD. The S2 function is
identical to S1 slave function, except that the pre-flashes will be ignored. In case the picture results achieved in S2 mode are not satisfactory, please try
to work with mode S1.
FLASH POWER IN SLAVE MODES S1 AND S2
TTL flash control is not active in slave mode. When using the slave function, select the desired flash power. First, press the SET button. The flash power
shows up in the LCD with a dark background and can be varied in 1/3 EV steps by pressing the arrow keys.
1 EV step corresponds to 1 aperture step). Both aperture and exposure time need to be selected manually on the camera. Depending on the aperture, the
flash range may vary. Note: The slave sensor is located at the front of the flash. In slave mode, the flash and the sensor should be directed towards the
master flash. In slave mode, the Sleep power saving function is not available.
FLASH WITH STROBE LIGHT RPT (REPEAT FLASH)
Depending on the object, it can be charming to flash repeatedly while using bulb mode. This explains how to do it, how you can, for example, you can
show the course of motion of a tennis player. Press the MODE button until RPT shows up in the display. Now you can set the 3 parameters:
1.
Flash Power: First, press SET button to adjust flash power. The flash power is marked in the LCD. Using the arrow keys, it can be adjusted in
full EV steps from 1/128 to 1/8 of the full flash power. (1 EV step corresponds to 1 f-stop.)
Number of Flashes: Press the C1 TIME button until the flash frequency starts blinking in the LCD. Here you define the number of flashes
2.
fired during one picture shot. Using the arrow keys, you can select from 1 to 10 in steps of 1 and from 12 to 70 in steps of 2. Confirm the setting
by pressing the SET button again.
3.
Frequency of the fired flashes: In order to define the time interval between the flashes, press the C2 Hz button. Use the arrow keys to select a
flash frequency between 1 and 10 in steps of 1 or from 10 to 100 in steps of 10. Confirm the setting by pressing the SET button again.
1Hz corresponds to 1 second, 10 Hz = 1/10s, etc.
Example for calculation of exposure time: You would like to fire the flash 20x during an exposure with 1/32 power ratio and a frequency of 10Hz. 20x 1/10s
= 2s exposure time. Given by the higher energy consumption using strobe flash, not all flash frequencies and flash power ratios can be combined. The
following settings are possible:

LED ASSIST LIGHT FOR AUTOFOCUS
The DAF-320 flash is fitted with an autofocus assist LED light. In case of very low light, the contrasts of your object may be insufficient for proper auto-
focus. In this case, the autofocus assist LED will go on, when the camera shutter is pressed halfway down. So the object will be illuminated and even in
the darkest rooms, the autofocus will be able to work fast and precisely. Some cameras and certain settings will not support this function. Then the LED
assist light can be switched on by pressing the Main/Assist Light button once. By pressing it again, you can switch the LED assist light off.
The function auto LED assist light can also be deactivated:
• Press the SET button for 2 seconds.
• The LCD shows MENU
• Press the left arrow key 3x, AFEN is marked.
• Use the right arrow key to select between ON and OFF.
