Photographers gain accurate exposure without manual guesswork, speeding up workflow and enhancing creative control.
The trigger accommodates high-speed sync (HSS) up to 1/8000s shutter speed, allowing use of flash alongside wide apertures in bright conditions, such as outdoor portraiture or motion-frozen captures.

Flash exposure compensation varies from -3 to +3 EV in 1/3 increments, facilitating fine-tuning of flash output directly from the trigger.
User-Friendly Interface and Controls
Equipped with a large backlit LCD screen and an intuitive menu system, the XProN presents real-time information on channel, group, flash power, zoom setting, and battery levels. Five group buttons and multiple control buttons allow quick configuration on the fly.
