THANK YOU FOR CHOOSING VELLO.

The Vello FreeWave Captain wireless triggering

system is a multi-purpose 2.4 GHz 4-channel

digital radio TTL system that empowers users

to remotely trigger ﬂash and camera devices.

You can enjoy the freedom of triggering from

a distance up to 300 feet (100 meters).

The Vello FreeWave Captain is designed to

give photographers an easy-to-use, high-quality

TTL radio slave system. With the use of built-in

TTL functionality, your camera and ﬂash unit

can automatically adjust your settings for the

ideal exposure in various lighting scenarios.

The wireless control capability eliminates

the presence of cable clutter, making it ideal

for studio or outdoor ﬂash scenarios.

Remote camera triggering is another ability

of the Vello FreeWave Captain. This is helpful

when a subject, such as wildlife, may be

dicult to approach. Additionally, the wireless

function of the device removes the potential

of camera shake, making it ideal for macro,

close-up, and long-exposure photography.

The Vello FreeWave Captain’s high-speed sync

and second-curtain sync functions create easy-

to-control lighting eects, making it simple to

take creative and artistic images. The wireless

system has a high-speed sync of up to 1/8000

second, allowing the user to capture images

wirelessly in most shooting scenarios. Its

small size and included pouch make the Vello

FreeWave Captain simple to store and transport.

To fully understand and best use the

functions and capabilities of your Vello

FreeWave Captain, please take a moment

to read through this user guide.

COMPATIBLE DEVICES

The Vello FreeWave Captain receiver

is available in models for both Nikon

i-TTL and Canon E-TTL cameras. The

Nikon and Canon models are each

compatible with the respective company’s

TTL (through-the-lens) technology.

To make full use of the FreeWave

Captain system, we recommend using

TTL-capable hot-shoe speedlights that

are compatible with your camera’s TTL

system (i.e., Nikon-compatible ﬂashes with

a Nikon camera or Canon-compatible

ﬂashes with a Canon camera).
