INTRODUCTION

Thank you for choosing a Vello Off-Camera TTL Flash Cord. This TTL flash cord allows you to set up a portable flash for off-camera lighting while retaining all of the TTL flash functionality achieved in modern digital cameras.

Off-camera lighting reduces the harsh shadows of direct on-camera flash and gives your photos more natural lighting. TTL (through the lens) functions of modern cameras handle exposure calculations so you can concentrate on composing the image. Because the light from the flash is measured through the lens by the camera, there is no need for exposure calculations or a separate light meter.

CAUTIONS

Switch off all devices (cameras and flashes) before adding or removing a flash unit.

Use caution in stretching the coiled cord. Do not stretch the cord to lengths where it will cause your setup to become unstable.

Do not attempt to modify or disassemble the cord, shoe, or contacts. Do not attempt to "daisy-chain" flash cords.

This device is not water-resistant. Do not immerse in or expose to water, rain, or snow.

Do not clean the cord with solvents. Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the cord and connections.

Do not use or leave the device in conditions of extreme heat, severe cold, or high humidity.
