A few days ago I posted that I was having issues with my D750, Yongonu Transciever - Flash. They were not in sync. The flash would go off before the shutter. Well I kept looking around and posting everywhere. A fellow Hogger posted the name of a group on FB and the owner of that group is a US Distributer for Yongonu. The name of the group is Speed Light Fundamentals. So I sent him a PM. The problem was this...
Apparently, Nikon made just a slight modification to the D750 Hot Shoe. Made it just a tad longer. So when I placed the transceiver into the shoe the pins were not making the correct contact. So what I need to do is when I place it into the hotshoe I need to pull it back a tad so that the pins make contact. Tried it and worked like a charm!!! Here is a link that he sent me. http://petapixel.com/2015/05/05/nikon-d750-hot-shoe-reportedly-causing-problems-by-being-slightly-too-long/

My persistence paid off. So now I am passing along this information just in case anyone else runs into this issue...Thank You Hoggers!!!
