does it provide a signal to the e-ttl contacts on a Canon D550 to fool it into just triggering the flash without trying to set time and light?

No it doesn't, it uses only one contact to fire the flash. Manual mode is the best way to use it. The device simply keeps the voltage from burning up the flash connections in your camera.

I'm sorry I can't answer this question as I have only used it on my Nikon D3100. I leave my camera setting on automatic and I bounce the light onto the subject. I would contact t Wein customer service directly with such a technical question.

I'm sorry that I can't answer that as I am using it on an Olympus E-500 with an Eflash INT 650.

it will set the flash off and I don't know what the trigger life is I just got it, will not transmit ettl settings but it will fire the flash

Yes, but there is no TTL. Either use the built-in camera meter or a light meter, like a Sekonic. Or, as the ultimate fallback plan, just adjust the power output until the exposure is correct.

I have used this flash also with a D90, D300, and D7100 as master in addition to an SB900.One thing to note is that TTL via wireless CLS only works when the 560EX is in set to A-1. I banged my head for a while with it set to B until I had a vague recollection of reading somewhere that only A-1 worked. When I switched it over, all was good. Any other group/channel combo seems to work with it set to manual on the master side (which is how we normally use it).

yes it does, but keep in mind that it does not allow for ttl... and any flash you put on the 'receiver' (as one will be transmitter_ the other will be receiver) will have to be manually changed. EI... the flash it to bright, you will have to walk over and change the settings on the flash yourself.

no. if you order it and send me a email i will send you the correct ttl flash

It would be helpfull if you told us what triggers and what camera u are using. I bought Pixel King Wireless iTTL triggers for NIkon and they do not work with my Sigma EF-530-DG-Super... so you see it is not only about the Flash...

Adapter rings are provided for a number of lens sizes. Not sure about the ttl flash function but suspect it would. I use it off camera as much as on to back light flowers, up light and side light. It works great and is very useful in low light when shooting flowers.

I don't know about that but this flash is fully manual. It will not monitor anything thru your camera and mine stopped working the 2nd time I turned it on. I would not recommend it. If you want a TTL ring flash that is fully automatic you will have to go for the Canon ring flash, about $500.

It should work fine, however the TTL functions will not. It is a completely manual speedlight.

The popup flash in the NEX can optically trigger the HVL-F43M flash. No TTL.

Yes, works through the hotshoe connection. It works perfectly with my Canon 430/580's, 560'sand Nikon SB's, Neewer and Yougono via hotshoe, and my Studio strobes when connected via sync cable. You can fire different strobes set to different channels, or all of them on one channel. but no TTL data. - lyarks.com

I can't think of any feasible reason why that would be so. Since you're not using a dedicated TTL flash, there's only one contact being utilized on the camera hot shoe to trigger the flash.

It also works from the hot shoe which will trigger the units. It doesn't do TTL like more costly unit does. They do make ones that do TTL. These you need to set the flash power at each remote flash. They work just fine if you can set the flash at different powers. I'm shooting animals at night and they work find for me because I need as much light as I can get for a big area. For studio work I'd get ones that do TTL and send the signal back to the sender and camera. They are cheap enough to have hanging around for special shots. I got two sets so I can control four flash units with one sender.

It does not work for TTL with my Nikon D5100 and Sunpak PZ42X Flash. It will work when the flash and camera are set to manual. The Sunpak right on the D5100's hotshoe works fine, but adding this flash code results in extreme overexposure. I'm puzzled, because all the pins look right, and continuity checks out.

Sure it does! But no TTL sync is sent over it, so you need to use manual mode on flash unit to control flash power.

I have a D300s, but these are manual syncs. There is no reason why they should not work. You will not have access to TTL though.
