5.4. TTL Mode Operation

In TTL (Through-The-Lens) mode, the trigger automatically adjusts flash power based on the camera's metering. This is ideal for fast-paced shooting where lighting conditions change frequently.

HSS allows you to use flash at shutter speeds faster than your camera's native sync speed (e.g., 1/250s), up to 1/8000s. This is useful for overpowering ambient light or using wide apertures in bright conditions.

HSS is typically enabled automatically when your camera's shutter speed exceeds the normal sync speed while the trigger is in TTL or Manual mode. Ensure your flash unit also supports HSS.
