Remote flash power output problem

Hi all,

Firstly, I hope what I’m about to write makes sense.

Nikon D300, remote SB700, using built in pop up as the trigger

Using the above, flash fires when it’s supposed to and I seem to have full control over the remote power output (-3/0/+3). So far, so good.

Nikon D300, remote SB700, using Pixel King pair as the trigger

Flash actually fires when it’s supposed to but it seems that no matter what settings I use, the remote SB700 only ever fires at minimal power. Result – no control over power output whatsoever.


These Pixel Kings are supposed to be compatible with the D300 but when using them, the only way I can gain full control at the moment is to set the SB700 to manual and dial in the required power output by hand. Is this right or is it just me being a divvy? It's not a major problem as I can get around it but it's just a bit annoying.

Cheers for any insight any of you might have on this.
