•
Adjust camera aperture (smaller), shutter speed (faster), or ISO
(higher).
•
Move strobe(s) further away from your subject.
•
Adjust exposure compensation in the camera.
Photos are under-exposed (too dark)
•
Adjust strobe exposure setting.
•
Adjust camera aperture (larger), shutter speed (slower), or ISO
(lower).
•
Move strobe(s) closer to your subject and check aiming.
Strobe will not fire
•
Turn on strobe.
•
Check the DS51 ready light. Turn the strobe’s mode switch to
OFF and then back to TTL. Make sure that the switch has actually
clicked into position.
•
Check that the batteries are inserted according to the “+” and “-”
markings. It is possible to buy bad “new” batteries, so check the
voltage output with a meter if possible. If using NiCad or NiMH
batteries, make sure the charger is operating properly and that the
batteries are fully charged.
