You need a 3rd trx/recv, one for the camera body.. get another set, works well with studio lights and distance is great..

Not knowing if you are shooting HSS or not, you will need a YN-622N for both flash units and one for the camera to trigger them.

Hello Jenna. This particular PW works as Transmitter and Receiver. You would need one for the camera (transmitter) and one for the flash (receiver). Also if you are using additional flash units you would need one for each unless you have them set up as a slave.

The night vision works great 18 leds, I bought a cheap camera on ebay for $18.99 with 36 leds and it really gives about 90 feet vision the ones that came with the dvr are about 60 feet. They work best if the led night lights are bouncing off things in the dark like a wall or a building, But if someone does walk by it will light em up big time. Also get the next dvr model up for it has a nice Hdmi And the alert buzzer works great ELEC CVD 2008H on your model the sofwear shows a alert tab but its not supported by the dvr. Hope this helps look at ptz cameras on u tube also to see how well they work. Good Luck

They sell one or as a set of two pocket wizards. You need two. One for the camera to send the signal and a second one to received and set off the flash.

One thing I would highly recommend if you are shooting with Canon is to use the YN-622C-TX (transmitter for the camera) and YN-622C (transceivers for each flash). Yongnuo has a version of this for Nikon, but I haven't ever used it or tested it. There are a lot of guides and comparisons on youtube for wireless flash triggers. One video I would check out is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ajwPYxZE8Bs with Tony Northrup. He explains features of several different ones. Again, hope this helps! :-)

Just recently purchased 4 tt5's, an AC3 and a mini tt1. Made sure all the TT5's were updated with latest hardware drivers using the Pocketwizard program. I LOVE the system. I mount the mini tt1 on camera set to proper channel, pop on the ac3, set my other flashes with the TT5's on A B and/or C and let her rip. I can turn off any group (A, B or C) at will to check the effect of the other flashes and then turn them back on and adjust any of them right from the camera.

Hi, I use three RF-603c II's with my 6d. I use one on the camera as a trigger, and two as receivers on two flashes (Yongnuo YN568EX [which also has five contacts] and a Neewer TT560). They only work on the TRx mode, but they've been working perfectly so far.You've checked that the channels on the trigger/remotes are set to the same combination? I can't think of anything else that could be a problem. Like I said they work perfectly with my 6d. So much so that I'm about to order two more RF-603C II's to go with another flash that I just got. Hope you get it sorted out. Best of luck.

You don't need to buy another reciver, the flash came whit a reciver incorpored, only need the transmisor in your camera

This is a complex flash unit, may be a challenge to learn for someone with little experience. Might want to start with a SB 800. Otherwise set in TTL and forget. If pictures are not what you want, there are lots of Internet site to offer specific assistance such as Ugly Hedgehog. Eventually you will find Nikon flash units are really good for difficult lighting situations.

Current bodies are D3 and D7100, also (2) sb800 and (2) Metz 50 AF-1. The Phottix works well with all combinations on either body. Cannot say for sure about sb 600 & 700. Just a caution: transmitter goes to sleep quickly (have to check if this can be changed) and first shot on wakeup can be overexposed. I got into habit of poking shutter release prior to a shot. This seems to work well.

i use these with a nikon d90 camera. the flashes i use is a sb900 and a sb700. i have used a couple of times and feel very comfortable. i have not used with off brand flashes. they do have on and off switches on top which are difficult to flip when flashes are attached. so you have to take flashes off then turn off or on. i will purchase another set hoping i can use with 2 remote flashe, along with my master flash on my camera.. hope this helps

You are welcome. I don't quite follow what you are asking. More lights are usually better.... Better perhaps to determine what you wish to photograph and then see how others do it. Using three to four lights is common. With portable equipment I am usually happy with two lights. I haven't used the SB-800. Two SB-800s using the prices you quoted would be $660. Two SB-600s and an SU-800 are under $600. Most people who get the 800s are not concerned with cost or are only getting one flash and want to be able to use it with older equipment. It has all the bells and whistles with some extra power.

The SB800 holds enough power for 3 auto TTL flashes. However final recycling can be 3 seconds once it has used up stored energy after 3 shots.Add the 5th battery with extended compartment or hook up to external power source and fires and recycles faster. Find specifications on Nikon site, or google the specifications of this flash. If you are taking photos at higher iso like 1200 or 1600 iso, it will not use as much flash power.

You need 2 triggers. Any one to fire the signal, and other to receive (one on camera and one on flash). You can even buy 3 or 4 and control multiple flashes with them.

I have been using the Yongnuo YN565EX for several month on my Nikon D600 and sometimes on my D5000 with fantastic results. I would thing that it will also be good on the D7000. It a great flash for the price.

Minimum of 3 so that you can do one on your camera and the other two remote. However, I would recommend 4 in case you want to have all 3 flashes remotely and ONLY the TRIGGER/MASTER on your camera WITHOUT A FLASH. Hope this helps.

Thank you. I got a pair two and they are easy to use. I put the Yongnuo YN 622C on top of my Canon 6D and the other one I put the flash Neewer 660 on it. Then i went to a different room and asked my boyfruend to take a picture...it triggered the Neewer flash in the other room!
