[QUOTE="Fred Kingston_RIP, post: 560782, member: 10742"] Yes... although I don't know what the range is on that light... with regard to fractional increments that you can adjust the amount downward. Metz says that light uses IR as the control for TTL... Nikon uses IR to transmit the TTL signals...but they use Commander mode to transmit those signals. Since that light is NOT Nikon/Canon specific, there appears to be an IR learning mode in the Metz documentation??? Of course, if there's no Commander mode sending signals, there's obviously nothing for the light to "learn". I suspect the light is using a simple optical slave to actually fire the light, since there is no hot shoe to make the connection. I use a Viltrox light and rarely use much higher than 1/128th power for macro [/QUOTE]
