How long does the battery last?

Can I use rechargeable batteries?

What is the recycle time?
The recycle time is typically 4 to 6 seconds when using fresh alkaline batteries, and may be slightly longer with rechargeables.
Does the flash support TTL metering?
No, the Mini Flash 12S is a manual flash with no TTL support. You need to set the power and aperture manually.
Is the flash safe for my camera?

How do I clean the flash?
Use a dry, soft cloth to wipe the exterior. Avoid using any solvents or liquids, and keep the battery compartment dry.
What is the S2 slave mode?
In S2 mode, the flash ignores the first pre-flash from a camera's TTL metering and fires on the second, main flash. This helps when using the flash with systems that emit a pre-flash.
