HOW TO USE REFLEX
There are 3 distinct mode; Continuous, Burst, and Continuous
interrupted by Burst upon triggering.
1. Continuous
• Rotate dial to desired power output in lumens.
• Your trigger may also allow remote adjustment of continuous power.
• Maximum power from the battery handle is 6000 lumens.
• Maximum power from a 100W USB-C source is 9000 lumens.
2. Digital Burst
• When set to Pwr, rotate the dial to set burst power. Maximum
burst power is 1 stop more light than maximum continuous mode.
• In Duration mode , rotate the dial to set duration from 0.4ms
(1/2500 sec) to 6ms (1/160th sec).
3. Continuous light that Bursts upon triggering
• Sync Reex with trigger (same as Digital Burst Mode)
• Set Constant light (using dial or trigger)
• Set Burst power with trigger. Trigger signal will cause the
light to deliver Burst power.
• Set your exposure to -1 when link is set to ∝2. When shutter
opens Reex will deliver extra stop of light.
