With stroboscopic flash, a rapid series of flashes is fired. It can be used to capture a multiple images of a moving
subject in a single photograph. You can set the firing frequency (number of flashes per sec. expressed as Hz), the
number of flashes, and the flash output.
Press <MODE> button so that
1<MULTI> is displayed.
Calculating the Shutter Speed
During stroboscopic flash, the shutter remains open until the firing stops. Use the formula below to calculate the
shutter speed and set it with the camera.
Number of Flashes / Flash Frequency = Shutter Speed
For example, if the number of flashes is 10 and the firing frequency is 5 Hz, the shutter speed should be at least 2
seconds.
To avoid overheating and deteriorating the flash head, do not use stroboscopic flash more than 10 times in
succession. After 10 times, allow the camera flash to rest for at least 15 minutes. If you try to use the stroboscopic
flash more than 10 times in succession, the firing might stop automatically to protect the flash head. If this happens,
allow at least 15 minutes' rest for the camera flash.
● Stroboscopic flash is most effective with a highly reflective subject against a dark background.
● Using a tripod and a remote control is recommended.
● A flash output of 1/1 and 1/2 cannot be set for stroboscopic flash.
● Stroboscopic flash can be used with“buLb”.
● If the number of flashes is displayed as “--”, the firing will continue until the shutter closes or the battery is
exhausted. The number of flashes will be limited as shown by the following table.

Display Flash Duration
Flash duration refers to the length of time that from flash’s firing to reach the half peak at maximum. The half peak
at maximum is usually expressed as t=0.5. In order to provide the photographer with more concrete data, this
product adopts t=0.1. The difference between t=0.5 and t=0.1 is shown in the following picture.
The flash duration will only be displayed on the LCD panel in M mode.

With stroboscopic flash, a rapid series of flashes is fired. It can be used to capture a multiple images of a moving
subject in a single photograph. You can set the firing frequency (number of flashes per sec. expressed as Hz), the
number of flashes, and the flash output.
Press <MODE> button so that
1<MULTI> is displayed.
Calculating the Shutter Speed
During stroboscopic flash, the shutter remains open until the firing stops. Use the formula below to calculate the
shutter speed and set it with the camera.
Number of Flashes / Flash Frequency = Shutter Speed
For example, if the number of flashes is 10 and the firing frequency is 5 Hz, the shutter speed should be at least 2
seconds.
To avoid overheating and deteriorating the flash head, do not use stroboscopic flash more than 10 times in
succession. After 10 times, allow the camera flash to rest for at least 15 minutes. If you try to use the stroboscopic
flash more than 10 times in succession, the firing might stop automatically to protect the flash head. If this happens,
allow at least 15 minutes' rest for the camera flash.
● Stroboscopic flash is most effective with a highly reflective subject against a dark background.
● Using a tripod and a remote control is recommended.
● A flash output of 1/1 and 1/2 cannot be set for stroboscopic flash.
● Stroboscopic flash can be used with“buLb”.
● If the number of flashes is displayed as “--”, the firing will continue until the shutter closes or the battery is
exhausted. The number of flashes will be limited as shown by the following table.

1. Over-Temperature Protection
● To avoid overheating and deteriorating the flash head, do not fire more than 100 continuous flashes in fast
succession at 1/1 full power. After 100 continuous flashes, allow a rest time of at least 10 minutes.
● If you fire more than 100 continuous flashes and then fire more flashes in short intervals, the inner over-
temperature protection function may be activated and make the recycling time over 10 seconds. If this occurs,
allow a rest time of about 10 minutes, and the flash unit will then return to normal.
● When the over-temperature protection is started, is shown on the LCD display.

Modeling Lamp
AD600BM is equipped with a 10W LED modeling lamp which has 3 steps of light adjustment and two always
lighting modes.
• Short press the Modeling Lamp Button to set the steps:
One step: 30% of power output; off in 30 minutes (prevent overheating)
Two step: 60% of power output; off in 20 minutes (prevent overheating)
Three step: 100% of power output; off in 10 minutes (prevent overheating)
• Long press the modeling lamp for 2 seconds to set modeling modes:
1.Always lighting
2.Modeling lamp auto off when firing.
Wireless Control Function
The flash unit is built in with a Wireless Control Port so that you can
wirelessly adjust the power level of the flash and the flash triggering.
To control the flash wirelessly, you need a FT-16 remote control set (on-
camera and on-flash). Insert its receive end into the Wireless Control Port
on the flash and insert the transmit end into the camera hot shoe. Settings
made on the hotshoe-mounted transmit and receive ends will be wirelessly
communicated to the flash. Then you can press the camera shutter
release button to trigger the flash. You can also hold the transmit end at
hand to control your off-camera flash.
For full instructions on the use of FT series remote control, see its
user manual.
Sync Triggering
The Sync Cord Jack is a Φ3.5mm plug. Insert a trigger plug here and the flash will be fired synchronously with the
camera shutter.
