Re: Why do flashes skip frames during a focus stack?

This staff-authored guidance is generalized. Project-specific and private details should be handled through direct support.

Use manual camera exposure and manual flash power, verify that every receiver is on the correct channel, and avoid a fully electronic shutter mode when flash synchronization is required. A missed frame often means the next exposure arrived before the flash recycled. Lower the power, increase the capture interval, check batteries and connections, and test a short sequence before restarting the full stack.
