Abstract

A remote control is described for controlling at least one group of flash devices for photography. The remote control is configured to send a pre-flash trigger signal, T, to the flash devices for initiating a pre-flash (PF), and to receive, from the camera, a flash adjustment value, VA. The remote control comprises a display and is configured to determine a main flash strength value, V, based on a pre-flash strength value, V, stored in the remote control, the flash adjustment value, VA, and a predetermined relationship between the pre-flash strength value, V, the flash adjustment value, VA, and the main flash strength value, V. The remote control displays the main flash strength value, V, on a display and sends a wireless main flash trigger signal, T, to the flash devices, for initiating a main flash, MF, with adjusted flash strengths.
