First you have to put it into flash mode.
Corded uses a sync cable from the meter to the flash.
Wireless uses the module but then the flash needs a pocket wizard to receive.
Then you need to make sure you're in the right flash mode. Incident or reflected. Incident is likely the simplest when starting out. You need to put the meter in the scene. Then take a reading.
If you don't have a manual you should be able to download it from the Sekonic website. The meter has quite a few modes so without the manual you'll waste plenty of time. |
