This is a stable and quick rechargeable studio flash system. Its power
is variable from 1/32 to 1. Its capacitor can discharge automatically when
it is not in use. The brightness of the modeling lamp is directly
proportional to that of the flash tube, so that you can preview the lighting
effect before taking the pictures. Besides, it contains a perfect notification
design for fully-charged and over-heat condition. When it is fully charged,
it will buzz and the indicator will be on as green. FT-FA series signifies the
most durable, user-friendly and professional oriented.

Connect to the power supply. Turn on the lighting unit and the
modeling lamp. (The brightness of the flash tube and the modeling
lamp is adjustable and the lighting effect is directly proportional to
each other.) If there is no need to control the brightness, you can just
turn on the flash. When the buzzer stops buzzing which means the
capacitor is fully charged, the flash can then be controlled to spark.
The illuminating angle of the flash unit can be adjusted. The result of
shooting can be previewed by using the modeling lamps.
This flash unit is thermo sensitive. When the temperature is higher
than the safety standard (Indicator light will turn to green), the flash
will be shut down. Once it is cooled down, the flash will function
again. Its purpose is to prevent the damage from overheat.
The guide number is directly proportional to the brightness of the
flash. The stepless power control can be adjusted from 1/32 to full
power for different luminosity of flash and modeling lamp. When
changed from high power to low power, the unit will flash once
automatically.
There is a sync cord included in the package, which one end is
connected to the flash unit and the other end is connected to the
camera.
Buzzer On/Off Switch can turn the buzzing function on. When it is
on, it will buzz until the capacitor is fully recharged.
The reflector is changeable. To change it, please press a button
down which is on the peripheral of the housing and turn the reflector
anticlockwise. Then, it can be removed.
If the umbrella reflector is used, please insert the stem into the
umbrella installation hole which is at the bottom of the flash housing.
Then, tighten the screw of the knob.
