5.1 Basic Triggering
Once paired, the V6llS will trigger your remote flashes when your camera's shutter button is pressed. The operating range is up to 300 feet.
5.2 High-Speed Sync (HSS) Modes
The V6llS supports HSS for Sony cameras and flashes, allowing you to use flash at shutter speeds above your camera's native sync speed (up to 1/8000s). It features two HSS modes:

Access and select HSS modes through the device's menu.

- Select the power level or zoom setting you wish to adjust.
- Rotate the dial to change the value.
