5. Çalışma Modları ve Özellikleri

The Profoto D2 offers several operational modes to suit various photographic needs:

• TTL Modu: For automatic exposure, set the D2 to TTL mode. This allows for quick and convenient light output adjustment based on your camera's metering. The D2 can be integrated with other Profoto AirTTL flashes (e.g., B1, B2) in a mixed TTL/Manual setup.
• Manuel Mod: For precise control, switch to Manual mode. Adjust the flash power output using the intuitive buttons and menus on the control panel.
• Yüksek Hızlı Senkronizasyon (HSS): The D2 supports Profoto HSS, enabling flash synchronization with shutter speeds up to 1/8,000 of a second. This feature is useful for overpowering ambient light or freezing fast action with wide apertures. HSS is available in both manual and TTL modes.
• Dondurma Modu: Achieve extremely short flash durations, up to 1/63,000 of a second, to freeze fast-moving subjects with absolute clarity. This is ideal for capturing splashes, motion, or other fleeting moments.
• Rapid Firing: The D2 can fire up to 20 flashes per second, allowing you to capture sequences of action and select the optimal moment.

6. Bakım

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your Profoto D2 units:

• Temizlik: Regularly clean the exterior of the units with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents. For the flash tube and modeling lamp, use a lint-free cloth and a specialized cleaning solution if necessary, ensuring the unit is powered off and cooled down.
• Depolamak: When not in use, store the D2 units in the provided custom bag in a dry, dust-free environment.
• Denetleme: Periodically inspect power cables for any signs of wear or damage. Ensure all connections are secure.
• Havalandırma: Ensure the ventilation grilles are clear of obstructions during operation to prevent overheating.

7. Sorun Giderme

• Misfires: Verify proper synchronization settings and connections between the D2 units and your trigger system. Check battery levels of the trigger. Ensure the D2 units are within range of the trigger.
• Modeling Lights Turning Off: If modeling lights turn off during rapid firing or heavy use, this may indicate a thermal protection mechanism. Allow the unit to cool down. Ensure adequate ventilation.
• Güç Yok: Check that the power cable is securely connected to both the unit and the power outlet. Verify the power outlet is functional.
