Quantum Instruments Qflash TRIO Basic Overview

The Quantum Qflash TRIO Basic Flash combines several of Quantum's venerable Qflash system technologies into one complete dedicated shoe mount flash, and has full E-TTL / E-TTL II dedication to Canon cameras. Slip it onto the camera hot-shoe, connect any Quantum Turbo battery (not included), and shoot studio-quality flash photos non-stop, 24 hours a day without slowing down or overheating.

The Qflash uses parabolic reflectors for clean, even light spread, and the reflectors are removable for bare-bulb lighting. The flash can be used either on-camera on its own or on-camera as a master to other off-camera units.

The TRIO Basic includes many of the same functions as other Qflash models including: Manual, Auto, Auto-Fill, TTL, and Program (Pre-Sets) modes. The TRIO Basic has high-speed sync capabilities, and can be powered by any Quantum heavy-duty Turbo-series battery, which allows for almost unlimited rapid-fire, full-power flashes. It has a user-replaceable flash tube, a coiled 6' power cable, a removable reflector and includes 2 flat white UV diffusers. A wide variety of optional light modifiers are available. A power pack is not included.

question

On my old Quantum flash I used a Norman 400B battery pack. Can that be used with the newer Quantum heads? Thanks
Asked by: Anonymous
That flash does work with the Norman batteries. There is one Quantum flash that works with the 400B battery with the use of an adapter.The flash is the QFX model. The link for that is, http://bhpho.to/1efe2TGAnd the adapter is, http://bhpho.to/Kt2SS9This flash is not a shoe mount flash. So to use it on a Nikon camera in TTL you will need an adapter to make it TTL and a flash bracket.The TTL adapter for Nikon is at this link, http://bhpho.to/Kt4Nq7

question

Can I use the Basic wireless and off-camera and still have TTL control?
Asked by: Martin
Yes you can,however you will need a TTL cord from your camera manufacturer so the camera can communicate with the flash.I am a Nikon Photographer the cord for me would be the SC-29 I am not sure about Canon.
