I placed my order with you guys a few days ago. I can't wait, I'm very very excited. Just wondering about the actual numbers on the flash duration, Is you downloadable manual working yet?

1/1 power = 1/13,500 Flash Duration (t.1)
1/2 power=
1/4 power=
1/8 power=
1/16 power=
1/32 power=
1/64 power=
1/128 power=
1/256 power=

Just Carious , Thanks

1/13,500 is the shortest flash duration and you don't get that until a bit less than -4f power. At -4f is looks like about 1/10,000. At full power its more like 1/700. All that is for action mode. You can also get down to 1/8000 sec. in constant color mode by dialing the power all the way down.

You can find the duration vs. power chart and a working link to the manual here: http://www.paulcbuff.com/pcb2009/einstein.html.

The link to the manual doesn't seem to be working when i download it. I'd just like to start reading and get familiar with all the functions before hand.

I'm not sure what's going on for you, I can open and download it from the link so I know it is working (just tried it).

Shoot me an e-mail and I'll send it to you... (address deleted) nevermind... CS got is resolved.

we did find an issue opening them with preview on a Mac. The marketing dept is working on fixing that while also updating the manual. Please allow us a few minutes to get this prepared.
