can achieve up even better performance without overheating problem caused

by repeating flash continuously*.

Please note that the basic operation is controlled by the main batteries (battery

magazine) in the flash unit and when the main batteries are exhausted, the

flash control system does not work. Replace the batteries when recycle time

becomes longer than 20 seconds by main batteries only.

* The overheat system may turn on under certain conditions. It will be automatically reset

after 15 minutes of stationary.

When taking a picture of a baby or small children, do not shoot the flash

straight onto them. Bounce the light off the ceiling or wall so that it won’t scare

them.

When pointing the flash to a subject in front of the wall, it creates an

unexpected sharp shadow on the wall which results in poor picture quality.

Bounce the light off the ceiling or wall to soften the light over the subject, and

the shadow fades out.

Turn the flash head upwards or sideway. The wall or ceiling in this case should

be flat surface and white color is preferable. Colored ceiling or wall may reflect

its color on the subject.

synchronization photography, the shutter speed is to set at higher than

the regular synchronization speed.

is shown in the display screen on MG8000 and the flash system is

automatically set for FP flash beam.

All modes in MG8000 support the slow shutter

synchronization.

The flash is controlled at a slow shutter speed to

trace the correct exposure on both the main

subject and back ground in low light conditions or at night.

The slow shutter speed produces a blurring effect of the subject and a

sharp flash beam freezes the moment. A combination of slow shutter

and flash light creates a motion image in the still picture.

To prevent the subject’s eyes from appearing red, MG8000 fires three

controlled flashes just before the picture is taken. Red-eye reduction

can be combined with slow sync.

Red-eye reduction flash is produced at all modes of MG8000.

Refer the operation manual of the camera for details.

All modes except Multiple flash mode are available for this sync.
