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

MOUNTING THE OFF-CAMERA FLASH

2. Mount the flash to the hot

sync cord.

your camera and flash for
