Why do people drop their cameras?

I use BlackRapid Straps when necessary. Camera hangs at your side. I agree on no straps around my neck.

I used this video to set my unit up. The manual instructions were worthless.

Good news: The issue was the hot shoe on my camera. The YN622N-TX receiver was pushed all the way in on the hot shoe, I backed it out a little and tightened it and now all three of me flashes work. Two Yongnuo's and my Nikon.
Yeah !!!!!!!!

Thanks for the help, I appreciate it.

I don’t think your speedlight needs to be in commander mode. On the Yongnuo receiver, it operates as if it’s directly attached to the camera. Ya least that’s how it works when I use my SB700 off camera. I always use TTL mode for the flash but it could also be set in manual mode.

I'll have to try again. Put camera commander mode back to neutral again and see what happens. Very frustrating since all of this worked before.

Thanks for your input. If you think of anything else let me know

Yongnuo - Nikon YN568EX flash YN622N-TX wireless flash controller YN622N Trigger HELP

I watched the video which I believe I saw a few years ago. I changed to Channel 3 and Group 3 I have speed lights on ITTL or ETTL (not sure what the I &E are for) They still did not go off.

I also have a Nikon SB910 speedlight as my third one and that one worked.

I guess my question now is on my Nikon D610 under commander mode I put in on channel 3 Under Group B there are two dashes (should that be changed to TTL also or leave as is??

Hi All
Previously all this has worked. My flashes are not going off when I take a photo. My Nikon SB910 does work. I have all on channel 1 Group A.
I have not had all this hooked up in a while so my recollection of everything is vague. I am using a
Nikon D610

I would appreciate any help I can get.
Thanks

Sigma 105mm macro

I have that lens and it is excellent. As far as the noise (brucej67) mentioned that is not true in my case, quiet as a mouse.
