: Optical Transmission Wireless Flash Shooting
Using a Canon device with an optical transmission wireless sender
function and 430EX III-RT/430EX III set as a receiver unit makes it easy
to shoot with wireless multiple flash lighting in the same way as normal
E-TTL II/E-TTL autoflash shooting.
The system is designed so that the settings of the sender unit are set
automatically on the 430EX III-RT/430EX III (receiver) that is wirelessly
controlled. Therefore, you do not need to operate the receiver unit
during shooting (except when set as the individual receiver, p.78).
For details on how to perform optical transmission wireless flash
shooting, refer to the instruction manual of the device equipped with the
sender function.
