The interface is still too crude. A few more LED lights and buttons, like for eg the YN 622 trigger, would help:

Of course, a basic LCD like the Cactus v6, and a similar button layout, would help a lot too.

I use to have these.

It has group and CH mark there.

But I always mistakenly presseed / touched the buttons and they changed. I have to correct it again. and I never tried to use other settings. it can set manual stop by long press the mode key.
then shoose a group.
then set power using the camear menu. ( while the R930 can set M power all using the trigger, yes complexity arise)

Infact, user would rarely need to change the CH. So make it far to reach is OK, like R930. to avoid mistakenly change. except for In M mode (which need the keys to be very active sensitive), to reach the menu should Long press to get in.

the most frequently used is to + - stops. acon make it as quick as one click. as long as in the M mode.

The problem make it differ is, it would not dispaly 1/128 ---1/1. instead. 1 , 2, 3, 4, (1+4), (2+4),(3+4),(1+3+4）。。

need math work to read .

I ask , why not make it ONLY 4 stop? that would make the reading easy.

The answer: DON'T try to read and convert. just ask: want darker? want brighter? and press keys. That is manual.
