Hi, I hope some of you more experienced shooters will be able to point me in the right direction.
I have been trying to use my Nissin Di622 flash off camera using the Yongnu RF602 as a wireless trigger with my Nikon D5000.
I initially had a few problems where the flash would not trigger at all, I sussed this out to be the flash in the wrong mode
The problem I then had was that the flash will not trigger everytime, which I could not really understand at first, the flash had recycled it's power ok.
It now appears that in order for the flash to trigger I have to wait for the green light on the receiver to go out, into standby I guess. Then the flash will trigger again.
If I take a shot while the receiver still has it's green light on the receiver light flicks red but the flash does not fire! (I assume the red flicker means it has received the signal to fire the flash)
Is there any way of cutting this wait time down, it's about 20-30 seconds, even if I change the camera settings this seems to keep the receiver 'live' and I then have to wait until the receiver goes to standby before I can take the next shot or is that just the way it is?
Or then again I could be doing something completely wrong
Thank you for any input.
Paul.
