More Powerful Than Built-In Flash

Optical Slave Functionality
Built-in S1 and S2 optical modes allow the iM30 to be triggered remotely by another flash. S1 fires on the first detected flash burst, while S2 ignores TTL pre-flashes and triggers on the main flash, making it useful for simple multi-light setups.
