First thing I checked 1/250 with the A7rIIDid anyone happen to check how fast the Nissin will sync (not HSS)?
I am using the latest Yongnuo wireless transmitters and I can only get to about 1/160 with my A7.
It has TTL both on camera and with air commander. I used TTL with the above shots but I dialed it down 1/2 stop so it does not look like flash. This is full featuredHey Guy,
It doesn't have an Auto mode with the front mounted light sensor correct? Only fully manual?
I need to replace my SB-800 and was looking for something with P-TTL for the Sony, and an Auto mode for the Phase.
Thanks sir!First thing I checked 1/250 with the A7rII
If you're talking about the old-fashioned sort of 'auto' mode (i.e. like a Vivitar 283), where you told the flash what ISO and aperture you're using and it controls the light output based on a sensor on the flash, then no, it doesn't have that. (which is a little surprising actually)It doesn't have an Auto mode with the front mounted light sensor correct? Only fully manual?

It does have pretty easy manual control over the light output, so it might be useable on your other camera.
Mark,If you use a Sony Air controller does it matter which particular Di700A flash unit is used. Let me explain. I have both Nikon and Sony--- if i were to purchase two flash units--- I could order two kits-- one with the Sony and one with the Nikon controller--- that way if i want to use a single on camera flash-- I have one both for Sony and one for the Nikon?
Mark,
My suspicion is that it does make a difference if you want to use TTL.
Sony and Nikon each have their own proprietary protocols for controlling flash in TTL mode. I doubt that the flash or controller will be smart enough to know how to use them together.
In Manual, presuming the Sony Commander will talk to a Nikon Di700a it should work fine.
Don't you mean your 'former' dog?My dog ate the air commander manual.
It's going to be real soon. Golden 11 month puppy Mike and she has literally destroyed our home . My baseboards and some door frames she has chewed up and about 5 places scratched the walls really bad. This is caused a major discussion in the house. It's my 18 year old sons. This continue I'll throw them both out on there ***. LolDon't you mean your 'former' dog?
Nissin usually has online manuals that you can download and store on your PDF Reader or Phone. I usually do this personally.Oh I'm dead serious. My dog ate the air commander manual. I kid you not.
Guy,I grabbed one. Afraid it may not be available next week. So this gives me two to work with. Now just need to figure out how to separate them via the air commander so I can control power. Manual sucks
