  1. This month I decided to make an investment in a Yongnuo flash system based on high praise from this forum and others. I have 2 YN560 IV flashes, and a YN560-tx trigger, all in the cannon version and in use on my xt-1. Flashes fire fine while mounted directly to the hot shoe, and connect and can be fired from the 560-tx while mounted to my xt-1. But the flashes will only fire once from the tx. I'll fire the shutter and the tx will pop both connected flashes, wait a few seconds (adjust the model, the lights, ect), and then try and fire a second shot, but the flashes won't pop. The blue LED lights up fine on both flashes, as if the tx is still connected appropriately. They will only fire again once I adjust a power/zoom/group setting on the tx trigger. I've gotten into the habit of just bumping the power up then down on the tx before each shot, just to get the flashes to fire. But this poses a problem when I need to take multiple shots quickly, or if (as is the case when I have no model...) i'm taking self-portraits and am operating from the fuji camera remote app. I then tried operating the flashes in trx mode, firing with one flash on the camera and one off. Same thing. The flashes will fire once from camera release no problem, but will not fire again until I adjust a setting on either flash. Optical slave mode fires consecutive flashes no problem, and the pilot button works consecutively no problem as well. My suspicion is that they're wating for a half-press wake up signal from the tx before each flash release, but since I'm operating from a fuji camera, the wake-up signal on half-press is not supported, and it doesn't send it. I've scoured the forums and tutorials around the web to see if i'm doing something wrong. I've set what I think are the appropriate settings (same channel and groups on all connected flashes/trigger, flashes in rx mode, single flash, camera not in silent mode, manual shutter, single shot, live-view off). I even ordered a second trigger, but when that arrived yesterday and operated exactly the same way, I reached a particular level of despair. I'm considering returning it all and abandoning off-camera flashes for the time being. Any and all help is welcome and appreciated. Thanks!
  2. Hi, This is a wedding portrait from Minangkabau, West Sumatra, Indonesia. Shot using X100T in the evening at f5.6 plus 1 speed light YN560 III and an umbrella
  3. Can I use a vivitar 283 made in Japan with an external PC cord on my fujifilm x pro2
  4. With just having my X-T1 arrive yesterday and then going through the settings using advice from Setting Up The FujiFilm X-T1 I have yet to find a way to turn on the sound to allow the flash. I have double checked in the menu options etc, but the flash still fails to work as the LCD indicates that the sound is turned off. Now I must say at first impressions using the FX 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 lens I am very impressed with the sharpness and resolution of the images I shot last night, even though this was not the lens I was suppose to get when I ordered my X-T1, that is being handled and the FX 18-55mm f/2.8-4mm lens is being sent on it's way.
  5. Looking to set up a Ring flash for my X100T and my Tele adapter. Has anyone know of a setup or a DIY setup.
  6. I'm in the process of selling my Nikon gear. The only thing that has held me back is that I love the Nikon TTl Flash system. I own A SB700 and some Pocket Wizards for the Nikon units. I also own the X-T1 and Fuji EF-42 Flash unit. I want to be able to use mySb700 either on the camera with a trigger, or remotely (short range) Does anyone make these units? I'd love to hear back from someone. I would appreciate it if it works on TTL Many Thanks Guys J
  7. Can anyone tell me whether this flash is known to work OK with the X-T2 which I am about to buy. I will be replacing a VLUX 114.
  8. Hello, My X Pro 2 suddenly stopped allowing the flash (any flash including triggers) to function in any mode but manual. If I move the flash in the hot shoe, it will sometimes read the flash as being there. Has anyone had a hot shoe come loose?
  9. I have been working with the Metz M400 and the Serene Automation MX20/RX20 for a few weeks now. The M400 is a great fit for xseries cameras. I use it on my Xt2 and Xpro2. It has worked without any problems ever since i updated it to the newest firmware. HSS and TTL are great. Its good as a on camera bounce flash as the head swivels 180 degree in both directions (one of my biggest annoyances on the Godox TT350F which only goes 90 to the left). Recharge time is relatively fast and I use it with 4 eneloop batteries. I actually prefer the Menu to a normal Flash interface like on the Yongnuos. Build Quality is quite good. The head movement could be a bit stiffer. I had a few Problems when attaching something like a flash disk as it is too heavy. Also the battery door is a bit fiddly. I find it quite good looking. Because of its ease of use and compactness i take it everywhere and now use bounce and fill flash more often. The wireless trigger from Serene Automation just arrived today so i can't give my final verdict on it. HSS and TTL worked out of the box with the m400. Some features are a bit counter intuitive but i guess once you got used to it its quite an effective little device. As the MX Unit doesn't have display i found it useful to map the flash settings to one of the xt2 function buttons. after that its easy to use through the in camera menu. I first thought that wireless manual power adjustment wasn't working but you have to leave the flash in TTL at all times. Right now thats all i can say about the Roboshoot. I hope this was helpful and feel free to ask questions This was taken with 1600 of a second in ttl and off camera
  10. I am new to the EF-X500..I have an X-T2 and EF-X8 (kit flash). I can use EF-X8 on camera, I can use EF-X500 on camera without difficulty. My problem is using the combination - that is the EF-X8 on camera and the EF-X500 off camera. Here are my issues: 1. Only way I can trigger the EF-X500 is in the N and P modes however I have to control both the EF-X500 and EF-X8 independently to adjust the power of the flash...that is I can control the on camera EF-X8 on camera flash within the camera menu as TTL or Manual however it doesn't impact the off camera EF-X500. Are they suppose to be in sync? If so how? 2. Also the Master Group A is dithered with the EF-X8 on Camera....do I need more than one EF-X500 to see the Group options...that is do I need at least 2 off camera flashes along with the on camera flash? 3. It seems the EF-X500 will trigger remotely in the N & P mode with the EF-X8 on camera...does it make a difference if I use the N or P mode (according to the manual it depends on pre-flash trigger)? Thanks for the anticipated help.‘
  11. i m looking to buy flashtriggers and recievers and im afraid i dont know all options... Im using some nikon sb900 but in future i would like to use some studiostrobes. Hss capability or something like that would be great... Any advice? Thx
  12. Hi, Would like some advice on the best wireless triggers that I can use on the X-T2 for use with the Nikon SB-700 for off-camera flash. I don't really want to buy a new flash at the moment and if this can work it would be great! Thanks in advance for any thoughts! Daniel
  13. Good day, An amateur question. Can you use a non-Fuji flash on an X-t2? Is it dangerous to burn all circuits? Best regards. RT
  14. I am inneed of some advise. I have both the xt2 and xpro2 and wish to get a flash sysrem. Which does this group feel is the best match; Godox AD200, Nissin or the Fuji x500. Thank everyone for your consideration. Jed Best
  15. Hello, I love my X-Pro and my little Nissin i40 in TTL-Mode when I shoot at low light conditions. Are there other Fuji Lovers, who shoot with on-camera flash? Here is a result: C 1 von -UweRichterPhotography-
  16. Anyone have any experience with the Flashpoint Streaklight 360 flash? The reviews I've read sound promising and the price point on Adorama makes it look like an attractive portable lighting solution. http://www.adorama.com/FPLFSL360K1.html
