I have interest in your offer, but need more info. Items such as USA or Grey Market, Shutter Count, Nikon Grip or 3rd party, and general condition with Pictures.

After looking at a few videos here's what I found. Basically its if you have multiple shooters. In the 1st mode the trigger only sends a trigger to the strobes leaving the power settings at their last setting. In the multi-mode, the trigger sends power settings before the actual trigger allowing 2 shooters to use the same lights with different settings. Thankfully I'll never use that feature, and it also explains why it didn't matter which mode I set it on.

You are definitely correct about the authors of the manuals. Sheeeeeeeesh, although most imported electronics are about the same level of English.

Thank you for your reply, but I think I have a good understanding of that feature now.

-Gary

That's a shame, but I'm sure Nikon will eventually update the utility in time. In the interim, I think your only option would be to purchase a dedicated webcam such as Logitech. I'm unaware of any other software that will allow a Nikon camera to function as a webcam.

Maybe try a different cable ??? Nikon says your camera SHOULD work.

supported digital cameras: Z 7II, Z 7, Z 6II, Z 6, Z 5, Z 50, D6, D5, D850, D810, D780, D750, D500, D7500, D7200, D5600, D5500, D5300 and D3500.

I'm sure you tried this but....... you did change to the Nikon camera in Settings right ???
I was surprised at the lack of settings with this software. There are NONE. Its more like a USB Driver where there are no options to set.

A Followup. I Found a Rob Hall video from the links you sent. Specifically this one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7bbwv_e4W3k It TOTALLY explained the feature I was confused with. Thank you so much for shedding some light (pun intended) on this issue.

Problem Solved.

Thank you so much. I love the godox system as well, in addition to the V860II, I have an AD600 and 2ea of the AD200's. They work GREAT, but I cant seem to see any difference regardless of how I set this option. Oh well, I Appreciate your response, I guess I have to work a bit harder at understanding this.

-Gary

Brian, you might be correct, although to me that's NOT what the manual seems to be saying. Even that doesn't make sense to me, why would that mode take more power? Its still only sending out 1 triggering signal to fire multiple speedlights.

(to quote Monty Python, " My Brain Hurts")

Thanks for your reply though

-Gary

I May have to go that route, Thank you. I just figured with all the people using Godox Speedlites and triggers on this forum someone had a quick answer.

Thanks again, Gary

Tried it tonight on a zoom meeting. Meh, I was sort of underwhelmed. I experienced occasional freezing of the video stream with my D810 which otherwise seems to perform flawlessly. Additionally, the available window or screen sizes are different than on my laptop camera.

It is crystal clear though. Its a start.... kudos to Nikon for following Canons lead

I Need help understanding a setting on my Godox Trigger. Under the "Shoot" function, there is an option for "One-Shoot", or "Multi-Shoot". I've attached a screen shot of the applicable page in the manual. What in the heck are they talking about here? How is a triggering signal optimized for Single Person or multi person photography? I'm missing something in their explanation. I Love the Godox system, but the manuals are less than stellar.

Do the 580 & 430 take the same pack or battery holder? Maybe you somehow switched them by mistake.

I Can tell you this about viewing. If you don't have dark skies forget it. You just wont see it. The pictures I've taken of it look so much more vivid than I could see in person. You almost have to strain to see it. It does NOT come up from the horizon, it just magically seem to materialize about midway between the bottom of the Big Dipper and the horizon once its dark enough. Initially when you see it, it looks like a faint star with a slightly smeared tail. At first I thought it was a bug splatter on my windshield. Size-wise, its like any other star in the sky. The amount of tail visible depends on how dark it is.

The good news is: once you see it, you can't un-see it ! It doesn't seem to move much either. Stays in one place for quite a while until it fades away. Total viewing duration maybe 1-1/2 hrs maybe more.

I found it very difficult to focus on it because it was so faint, I could just barely see it in the viewfinder of my D810

Hope this helps

I dont know why you seem to have had problems, it appeared to work fine for me without ANY adjustment other than a final crop.

When you look at it, you almost need to question if its more of a modified motorcycle, or an auto missing 1 wheel. Dang its even got Nitrous on it. Nope, not something I'd want to ride. Rode a Boss Hoss for a demo once. It had a Chevy 350 motor on a more conventional type frame, and it wasn't all that nimble or comfortable to ride. I Gotta believe this handles more like a car than a Bike.

Great Pic though Voss.

BTW.... did you notice his GoPro on the upper wing? Chances are he got a pic of YOU getting his pic !

FANTASTIC DEAL !

Considering the Body alone is probably worth around a grand, Paying $570 for the lenses extra battery & grip is great. You did good. Even if its "grey market" who cares.
