Hello again, Izzy at Digital Goja
showrooms. Well I looked at some of the
customer service questions, some Amazon
questions, some eBay questions and some
YouTube forum questions on how do I cut,
reduce or get rid of my recycle time on
my flash altogether.
You can't get rid of it but we're going
to show you how to cut it down. If this
video helps you out

Alright, so what you first have
to do is, remember to be able to get your
flash to recycle faster you have to
switch it to manual and physically cut
down the power output, that's the way
you're going to get the flash to recycle
faster.
You can't just eliminate a recycled time,
so here, I'm going to turn on this one is
a 430EX III RT from Canon and we're going
to go into the menu and we're going to
switch it to manual. You don't want it on
TTL, and go into your power ratio and cut
it down and by cutting it down it'll be
one dash and a larger number so let's
say for example 1 dash 32 will cut it
down to 132 power. So now I can go ahead
and notice how when I fire the flash it
recycles considerably faster so I can
cut down my recycle time and shoot much
more rapidly.
This is how we cut down the recycled
time on the Altura Photo Pro series
Universal flash, what you have to do is,
since this is a manual flash you're
already ahead of the game because you do
have to set it to manual. But notice the
little power input here,
notice how the more power the slower the
recycle time so you can cut it all the
way down if you choose to 132 or 164
power and now when I fire off the strobe
notice how it recycles considerably
faster so it cuts down my
recycling time and allows me to shoot that
much faster. Now I want to show you how
to cut down the recycle time on your
Altura Photo professional series APC 958x
speedlight flash for Canon, again, we
have to turn on the unit and you have to
make sure that your flash is set to
manual, you don't want to use it on TTL.
So once you have it set to manual and
you switch the power ratio, here I have
it for example cut down to 1/128 you can
choose whatever power output you want
but it can't be one-to-one because that
slows down your recycle time. So now I
can go ahead and at 164 power,
notice how this recycles considerably
faster than if I was working on TTL. Now
I'm going to show you how to cut down
the power ratio on the Altura Photo Pro
series digital SLR TTL flash for Canon.
So, first we turn on the unit and you
want to switch the mode off of TTL so
now when we go into our manual mode you
can cut the power ratio
I mean you can do anything below
one-to-one ratio, here have it set to 1
128, so notice how when I fire off now
it recycles considerably faster than if
I was shooting on TTL so it's going to
cut down the power output of your flash
but it's going to also cut down your
recycle time.
