5.3 Setting Channels and Groups

To avoid interference and control multiple flashes, set appropriate channels and groups.

• Access the channel settings through the touchscreen menu. Select a channel from 1 to 32. Ensure your flash units are set to the same channel.
• Assign flash units to different groups (A-F, 0-9) to control them independently. The R2 Nano allows control of up to 16 groups.

5.4 Flash Modes (TTL, Manual, Multi-flash)

The R2 Nano supports various flash modes to suit different shooting scenarios.

• TTL (attraverso l'obiettivo): Automatically adjusts flash output for correct exposure. Ideal for fast-paced shooting where lighting conditions change frequently.
• Manuale (M): Allows precise control over flash power output (e.g., 1/1 to 1/256). Suitable for consistent lighting setups and creative control.
• Multi-flash (Stroboscopic): Emette una serie di rapidi lampi durante una singola esposizione per catturare più movimenti di un soggetto.

5.5 Sync Modes (HSS, Front Curtain, Rear Curtain)

Select the appropriate sync mode based on your shutter speed and desired effect.

• HSS (sincronizzazione ad alta velocità): Enables flash synchronization at shutter speeds faster than the camera's native sync speed (up to 1/8000s). Useful for overpowering ambient light or using wide apertures in bright conditions.
• Sincronizzazione sulla tendina anteriore: The flash fires at the beginning of the exposure. This is the standard sync mode.
• Sincronizzazione della tendina posteriore: The flash fires just before the second curtain closes. This creates a streaking effect behind moving subjects, giving a sense of motion.

6. Manutenzione

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your R2 Nano remote.

• Pulizia: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the exterior of the device. For the touchscreen, use a microfiber cloth specifically designed for electronics. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
• Magazzinaggio: When not in use, store the R2 Nano in its provided storage bag to protect it from dust and scratches. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
• Cura della batteria: To maintain battery health, avoid fully discharging the battery frequently. If storing for extended periods, charge the battery to approximately 50% every few months.
• Contatti Hotshoe: Keep the hotshoe contacts clean and free of debris to ensure reliable communication with your camera.
