Slave units don't synchronize with D5200

22 November 2018 - 11:38 AM

Hello,

I'm trying to trigger some slave units to the attached strobe on my camera, but apparently the don't synchronize correctly, they discharge, but their light does not affect image.

I have the following setup:

  • D5200
  • MASTER FLASH: VIVITAR DF-3000 (dedicated TTL)
  • SLAVE UNIT: TUMAX 160S (generic) slave unit

I have configured my camera in the MANUAL setting, at various power levels, but none of them gives the required result.

I have also shot at various lens openings with the same results.

I also varied shutter speed, and aout 3 sec., the slave light gets into the image (that is: there is a 3 sec. delay?

 

Please, can someone gime me some advice?

 

Thanks in advance for your valuable help
