Have Canon speedlights and also a Phottix speedlight.
The Phottix unit precedes the latest version where transceivers are in the unit.
All flashes are fired with Phottix Odins.
I'm going to shoot at a dinner and ball tomorrow and so, yours truly has to wear a suit and tie...YuK!
Above comments are for explanation purposes only as shall be explained.
Turn on the Phottix, 2-3 seconds it is ready to go. Press the test button and it wont fire.
If I connect to camera. Nothing
This the second time this has happened and is both annoying and worrying.
30 minutes later where I am about to throw it out the window, I get a small flash, next press on the test button and all seems normal, and so it is.
Works perfectly on camera and exposure spot on.
So what the hell is going on. Capacitor charge circuit in flash? If so, then why do the lights on the back of the unit show no problem.
Got any tech_heads out there?
Interim fix? Leave it out with batteries installed and fire it off once a day?

It saddens me to forward the news that our good friend and fellow photographer, Matt Quinn, has passed. As some of you may know, he had been battling cancer for a while and was on his way to recovery. Please take a moment to remember him in your prayers. |
