View Full Version : 430ex Flashgun Question

Anyone got the 430ex and could maybe answer a question on the 'SE' standby times.

I see the gun only has a off/SE switch unlike my 550's which have a off/on/SE

So, when the 550 is set to 'slave' I can have it permanantly 'on' instead of it going into 'stanby mode'

All I want to know is can you have the 430 'on' all the time or does it go into standby after a certain time.

I see it has a similar custom function to the 550 of 10mins and 1 hour, I think, before it goes into standby. (set to slave) Is that right?

I don't think you can have it permanantly 'on' although 1 hour will do.

Hope all this makes sense
