Operating Instructions

1. Basic Flash Modes

The IT32 supports various flash modes including TTL (Through-The-Lens) for automatic exposure, Manual for precise power control, and HSS (High-Speed Sync) for shooting at faster shutter speeds. Use the touchscreen interface to select your desired mode.

The IT32 features a color touchscreen for intuitive control, a flexible rotating flash head, and built-in diffusion and catchlight panels.

The IT32's screen provides intelligent recognition and real-time display of X5 version, battery level, and charging status.

3. Rotating Flash Head

4. Built-in Reflector and Diffuser
