Can you mount a Nikon TTL flash atop the transmitter while using the receivers on remote TTL units

Sorry, but I have the Yongnuo YN560-III which work off of the actual flash and not a radio signal. These only work of off the flash itself and must be somewhat in line of site with the master. These serve my purpose just fine.

The flash on transmitter will get TTL of TTL-BL, on receiver gets TTL only.

Yes. I place my SB900 atop a transmitter mounted on the camera. It acts as a master. My SB600's are mounted on remote receivers and become slaves. Everything performs as it would if you were using the Nikon CLS system except line of sight is no longer a requirement. Really works well.

It depends on what you mean by compatibility. The TTL will work when on camera. When off camera-remotely the wireless devices DO NOT send any specific data, ISO, Aperture, Shutter Speed to the wireless receivers. Once the flashes are off camera, they will still flash, but setting the flashes becomes manual. I was very surprised to read that in their manual. For this reason I came very close to sending back the whole kit. If I had to do it over I would not purchase it. Plus I have a D810. The wires connections do not even fit/connect to my camera. Their website said compatible with Nikons. It really depends on what they mean by compatible.Hope this helps! It depends on what you mean by compatibility. The TTL will work when on camera.

Yep, I use them with Nikon , and Meike, just make sure that you get flashes that support TTL. If not, they will still work, but you have to shoot in manual.

Yes, A Transciever is a combined transmitter and receiver. Each one can be used in either role (via selector switch on the side). I carry 5 of these in my lighting kit along with 3 Yongnuo speed lights and 1 Canon speed light. I can use any of them on any of the devices (camera or flash) and they work great. Keep in mind they do not support TTL. If you're a manual shooter, then you'll love these.

Hi I used YN622 whit a nikon d7000 on my camera and a sb900 on The transmiter, and off camera a YN 622 receiver whit a sb 800 all flashes Working in TTL mode, this transmiter is like a dedicated cord, is a wireles cord, by the way don't work Good, make a failed to my camera, and some times over exposed some shoots

The transmitter mounts to your hot shoe and primary flash on top of that. The receiver has a base for it that can be set on a table, or also screwed to your tripod, a much better option.

Any feature that is on the back of the flash unit will work (power output, tilt, etc). It will not handle ttl or fp mode.

I mount my camera on a bracket and use the flash with a radio slave bought from amazon. It works fine.i believe the radio slave is made by cowboy. Not too expensive. When I used the flash on the camera, I had some issues

At the risk of stating the obvious, one of them should be labelled Transmitter and the rest, Receiver. They do look similar though but the Transmitter doesn't allow any external flash to be mounted on its hot shoe.

You can do that ! You will need 3 units total. One for the camera as a transmitter and two as receivers. You can do what I did and order 2 sets of 2 giving you four. The three that you need and one backup !Good luck with your off camera flash !Alan

The short answer is yes. Set one trigger on transmit and the rest on receiver mode and press the middle botton and your should get the flashes to fire.

It should be-- same protocol for the cannons. Realize though it may not work off camera with a remote TTL system if you ever go that route. I wanted to use it with Odin's system (Highly recommend!) but it wouldn't work with the Yongnuo-- only a Canon flash. Other than that, good on camera flash for a lot less than a Canon.

You need a transmitter on the camera and a receiver attached to the flash. To fire the flash with a sync cable you need a cable that has a hotshoe on the flash end and something that attaches to your camera's sync system. I don't know how many TTL features are retained when you go off camera.

TTL will work in remote mode (fired via the EM5 flash), remember to set the camera for "RC" remote control and set one of the 3 supplied flash modes (A,B, or C) on the camera as TTL. The sensor on the flash must not be obstructed. So if the soft-box covers the sensor it will not fire. It helps when the FL600r flash is facing the camera's flash, but it doesn't always have to. This depends on the ambient light where you are shooting, inside this is not as critical, outside in bright sunlight this is more critical and directly facing is necessary.

Yes they will. However please note that there is no TTL metering. You will have to set flash power manually

This unit uses a single contact hot shoe trigger to turn on LED's momentarily, and is not equivalent to a strobe trip driving optical slaves. You could leave a TTL strobe on a hot shoe, or remote cable connection (or RF remote trip), and use this unit in the constant on mode, mounting its battery/control box on a separate cold shoe bracket it needed. However, hot shoe mounting of a full size TTL strobe wouldn't light the area a macro ring like this, or far more expensive strobe type, reaches directly in front of the lens. This unit doesn't do stop motion as strobes do, as it either flashes or turns on LED's (easier for focus or to use camera exposure sensors). The only reason I can see to use both at once would be to use the strobe as side fill, using a Canon TTL remote cable just as one might use with that strobe on a bracket rather than in the hot shoe.

I have to add to the other answers: These units are NOT TTL capable. They work in manual mode only. Also, I am not sure the remote trigger cord (the "N3") will work with your camera. The RF-603 comes with 3 different cords for different Nikon cameras: N1, N2, and N3. The transceivers are the same ones for all off them and interchangeable as long as they are the Nikon type.
