What am I doing wrong? X-E1, E2 & Pro1 hot shoe's are not triggering a Yongnuo RF-603C II. A flash mounted on second 603 will fire when the manual (test) button on the camera 603 is pressed, so I conclude the Yongnuo's are working properly, but that the camera 603 isn't receiving a trigger signal from the camera. Cameras set to S mode (single shot) and silent mode is off. Tried in both auto and manual. I've read that X bodies WILL trigger the Yongnuo so I'm puzzled. Thanks for any suggestions.

Thanks Trenton, but none of my bodies have electronic shutters. I've tried both TX and TRX modes on the camera's 603. Interestingly, the test button on the camera 603 will only trigger the second 603 with strobe if it's in TRX mode, i.e., both 603's must be in TRX mode.

Hi LightShaper,

 

I'm using Yongnuo RF-603 II on my X-T1 successfully now...

 

The first ones I bought where V1.0 (you can find version printed on the side of the packing) and did not work with my Fujifilm. I send them back and got another one with V1.2, which work as expected.

 

Regards, Thorsten

I've had this happen twice with these triggers (RF-603CII). On the first occasion I discovered that I'd accidentally changed the channel setting when I changed the batteries. On the second occasion (and I sometimes still do this!) I hadn't fully pushed the transmitter into the camera's hotshoe (it's deceptive: you think it's fully inserted, but it needs an extra push for the last few millimetres). Apologies if you've already checked all this!
