Thank You, great video brother, I just got both for Cannon and I could not find a video to help me. So great job.
this is the most helpful video i’ve seen using these lights. do you offer zoom sessions on maybe how to use these specific lights ?
Thanks, bro! Most definitely. I offer Zoom sessions to assist with learning photography. Please visit linktr.ee/learnwithgermainegrimes for more information.
excellent video thank you very much it was very helpful
You're welcome!
That’s really helpful Germaine, although English isn’t my mother tongue I fully understood all of the given information. I have a Sony a6400 with some semi professional accessories on it including a Sigma 56mm, Moza Aircross 2 gimbal + Slypod E. my last purchase is from B&H, the FJ80 by Westcott with Sony adapter shipped all the way to Peru.
I’m new to photography and still learning how to operate my a6400. If you have some tips, I’ll be glad to learn from what you can show. Thank you in advance, from Cusco 🇵🇪
That's great! I'm new to creating content, so my presentation may not be the best at this time. I'll continue to upload more content and improve while doing so. Please follow me on Instagram and reach out in the future. I offer virtual courses as well to assist you in becoming a better photographer.
Does it work for Sony a5100?
That Camara has the flash attached to the cámara.
If you have a hot shoe mount on your camera, you should be able to pair this trigger to the camera.
Couple things,
For everyone looking how to sync high speed flash and TTL, from what i understand, these flashes are only available to use in full manual mode.
Second, my trigger fires every time no issue without the adapter.. so i don’t know what is the point of the adapter..
What type of camera are you using?
Can you help. Can you provide the settings for Nikon?!When I use this radio trigger my strobe triggers once and half a second later it triggers again.
Hello! I'm just seeing your message. Is your trigger and strobe on the same channel?
Did you go through all that preparing your camera stuff in the brochure when you first used?
Honestly, I didn't. I've been shooting/using off camera lighting for a while now, so I kind of understand the basics. I did have an opportunity to use this strobe at Eli Infante's workshop back in June.
It's my understanding that you only need that Sony adapter if you want to shoot HSS or TTL, that the trigger will fire in Manual mode without the adapter on Sony bodies. Is that true?
Is there any way to connect this strobe with canon speedlite transmitter?
Do you I have to have the Sony adapter with a Sony alpha 6400?
Just seeing this comment. Yes, I would acquire the adapter just to be on the safe side.
Hi, if a want to put my flash on the camera, should I used the adapter too?
Thanks if you can answer me!
You must need the ATG/Sony adapter with camera that has MIS.
Great video Germaine, I can tell you're good with cameras. I'd suggest you to invest on lighting so you can level up your video quality
Thanks, bro! I actually made this video at the last minute, but I have upgraded my lighting since then. My future uploads will look a lot better.
Best regards
How can I synchronize the wescott 400 200 and 80 flash and how do I configure my sony camera to use high synchronization
Thank you sony 6600 y 7111
Assign each strobe to a channel on your trigger. Once that's done, you can adjust each strobe and activate HSS using your trigger.
