Lencarta radio trigger - fussy connection

[FlyTVR]

If I attach my radio trigger http://www.lencarta.com/radio-triggers/tri001-16ch-wireless-flash-trigger/receiver-set/index.php?keyword=trigger to my camera (400d) firmly it fails to work. In fact the only way it will work is if I slide it on do not tighten it up at all.

Anyone else found this?

Cheers.

I never tighten the locking nut on any radio trigger, it shouldn't be necessary and can cause the connection to fail if it's tightened too much.

Thanks for the prompt reply Garry. I'll continue not tightening it, but does make me wonder why there is a locking nut?

Probably because people would complain if there wasn't one

same as the interfit one, just slide on

Thanks all - just glad to know it's 'normal'
