(permalink) 9 months ago Dave I like the SB-600 but not as much as my SB-28DX, which also can't run as a master and isn't even part of the Nikon CLS line. Mr. Speedlight edited this topic 10 months ago. Source: A Hands-on Guide to Creative Lighting by Nikon School. I'd like to hear from people that already owns one of this system, which one to buy and if the sb800 once triggered is still capable of controlling other flashs wireless or i need more receivers to controll those. I found the X2T-n logical enough that I didn't need to refer to the manual except that I once I turned the illumination off on the X2T-n. Are you suggesting the XPro trigger mounted on the D850 will talk to the X1 receivers and transmit power level adjustments on the SB800 from the XPro on the camera? Sign up for a free account, or sign in (if you're already a member). So I'm frustrated that the X2T-n and X1R-n aren't compatible with my SB-800(s) in TTL mode. Have used the pure manual FR602 triggers for about a decade and they have been the most bullet proof bit of photographic gear that I own. Mr. Speedlight edited this topic 9 months ago.

Today I Received When I turn it o Really? 
Years ago i purchased what was then the top of the range SB-800 Speedlite for Nikon D40. Then using the controls on the X2T-n I set TTL and 0 compensation followed by +3 stops and then -3 stops. I own physical Nikon SU-4 slaves so the SB-400 could be used with one of those in SU-4 Auto or Manual Mode. A speedlight used on the X2T-n hot shoe might be used as fill flash in either TTL BL or Manual but that's not possible. Using Ni-MH batteries I found exposure compensation, -3 to +3 stops, did not function correctly most of the time. I tried an SB-800 and it performed correctly.

I tried the SB-400 and it's such a feather weight that I felt that the X2T-n could safely carry it without over stressing the X2T-n. For a bit of fill from the SB-400 and catch lights in eyes I'd build a small diffuser using a food container like a butter tub but I'd find something with a cover that's about 3 inches (75mm) or a little larger.

Ok, I have a D2H and I want to use the sb800 on a stand not having I need other receiver? The SB-700 and SB-400 both performed as expected. I'm not surprised that the X2T-n can't be controlled from the Photo Shooting Menu> Flash Control> sub-menu but I did expect the hot shoe would pass though TTL BL control (iTTL balanced flash) and/or manual control of the SB-400. The Autel EVO Nano+ drone weighs less than 250g, includes advanced features, and gets extra points for privacy. A bonus for the receiver units would be a PC outlet so I can use them to remotely trigger packs/mono blocks, more to the point, to be able to set them to different groups and be able to turn a group off. I note that I called Adorama and one person told me the set was fully compatible with my SB-800(s) and one told me for manual flash power but not TTL. 3. If not Godox, what did you buy?

Anyway, I'm going way off topic so to bring it back to what Duncan said in as far as the SB-600 as a master flash, no, it can't do that, but I agree that with those who feel Nikon could have upgraded the firmware for the 600 to accept that role.

Given the uncertainty regarding the future availability of Godox X1R-n receivers I just pulled the trigger on I might keep the X2T-n transmitter and buy a couple of Godox TT600 manual speedlights which have built in receivers.
