This section covers some typical lighting situations that photographers find
themselves in, and how the Qflash models T4d and/or X4d can help.
10.1 Portrait
Setting up a 3:1 portrait ratio has always been time consuming. It is usu-
ally accomplished with three flashes: Main, Fill, Background set to manu-
al. Each flash needs to be adjusted and metered separately. If the Main
is in an umbrella or soft box this becomes even more time consuming.
The Qflash ‘Wireless Control’ mode (with a FREE
X
WIRE) or ‘Wired
Control’ mode (with a QF50 cable) provides a method for setting up por-
trait lighting which takes only a few moments.
Set the Qflashes as shown in
the diagram to the right.
Place the camera at the Fill
Qflash position. The Main
Qflash can be placed in an
umbrella or soft box.
If Quantum FREE
X
WIRE’s
are used then the Qflashes
will be in Wireless modes.
See Section 8.0 for details
on setting the Qflashes to
Remote 1, Remote 2 and
Control.
If a QF50 cable is used see Section 7.0 for details in setting the Qflashes
to Remote 1, Remote 2, and Control.
Once the Qflashes are set up, make the following settings to the Control
Qflash.
