TCM FUNCTION

Another significant feature introduced with the XPro transmitters is the new TCM function.

TCM stands for: TLL–Convert–Manual.

With TCM its now possible to take a shot in TTL mode to attain an initial exposure very quickly, and then with the press of a button convert those TTL power levels to now display on the transmitter as Manual power level settings.

The TCM function is potentially a very big advantage for people operating in a fast paced environment, allowing a base setting to be gained very quickly without manually metering lights. Switching to Manual the individual power levels can then be refined as needed, and exposures remain constant for subsequent images.

ZOOM CONTROL & MENU

Other new features include a flash Zoom control screen, now allowing each group to be set individually.

As well as a large new graphic Custom Function Menu (see the full C.Fn list here).

USB-C PORT

The Xpro transmitters have now updated to the USB-C style port for firmware updates.

And once again provide a 2.5mm sync port.

AF ASSIST LIGHT

The XPro transmitters again feature a built-in AF Assist light. Currently using the same light pattern as the previous X1T transmitters.

And again a regular screw locking foot is used. And power is via 2 regular AA batteries.

The AF Assist light has its own dedicated switch, alongside the main Power switch.
