Hi gang!
Some may recall me posting earlier that I'd just purchased my first strobe/monolight, a Neewer S-400N (400 watt). (And taking Cindy's advice, I also now purchased a 37-inch octobox that I found on a good sale, and a C-stand. Cindy's never steered me wrong yet!)
The test shots I've taken with it have turned out quite well so far, and I'm really looking forwards to getting more portrait practice now.
However in typical Neewer fashion, the included "instructions" were bare boned, to say the least. Not to mention riddled with often hilarious examples of Engrish - also a time honored Neewer tradition. The upshot is, I've been basically left to my own devices when it comes to figuring out how to work the thing.
Never having had any experience though, and finding Google search results to be almost as confusing as anything Neewer sent me, I haven't had much luck figuring out much more than basic functions. So I was hoping someone here might be able to shed some...ah...no, I'm not gonna make the pun.
Can anyone tell me what the "Cell", "Prop", and "Auto" buttons pictured here do? I turn them on and off, or at least I think I do, yet it never seems like anything is affected.
Thanks very much!
