Skiing in Zauchensee (AT) Fuji X-T1 + XF 18-55

Hi everbody, i solved the issue by myself (by chance)!! I didn't have to return the nissin because it was just a matter of one long press on the LED next to the ON/OFF Switch. I haven't found an explaination of this behaviour in the manual but if you press the LED for approx. 2sec. the LED next to the Mode Dial starts blinking. After that the Nissin fires only trigger flashes in M Mode. After i hit the button for 2sec. again the Mode Dial LED was shining permanently - and the Flash works as expected in M Mode! Thanks Adam for you support!! regards Thomas

Thanks a lot Adam! Now i'm sure it must be a problem with the Nissin. I will return it to amazon...

Hi Adam,could you give it a try? Unfortunately i have no second X-T1 or Nissin within reach to test if this is just a bug of my equipment... This is what i already have tested... M Mode isn't usable at all - no matter which device has been switched on first

Hey Guys, i have an issue when using the Nissin i40 in Manual Mode on my Fuji X-T1 (FW 4.30). The Camera is automaticly switching to Commander Mode and i haven't found a way yet to use the flash as a forced flash to light the subject. Here are my setting: Nissin i40 in M-Mode and 1/1. The LED next to Nissin Mode Dial is always blinking when M is selected. X-T1 + XF35 1.4 in M-Mode ISO200 1/50s f2 Mech. Shutter AF-S Single Focus Point Face Detection OFF RAW High Performance ON Pre-AF OFF Silent Mode OFF I expect the subject to be extremely overexposed in this set up - but in fact there is no difference in exposure compared to the image without flash. Has anybody made the same experiences? Is it a normal behaviour of the X-T1/Nissin i40 or should "Forced Flash" Mode be usable when the i40 is set to "M"? regards Thomas
