The best think to do is purchase Pocketwizards AC3 Zone controller. Check out this video by Pocketwizard. This should answer question perfectly. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4HGyVhoW8iY

I have no idea. Scrolling through the settings, I can not find where any camera setting would be selected. Sorry.

The paperwork says:Although this flash unit has been equiped with numerous functions, depending on the camera model being used, some functions may have some limitations. A type cameras: E-TTL (ETTLII) Compatible EOS SLR cameras. B type camearas: All other EOS cameras except those listed above.. I find that a bit confusing but I hope this helps.Bob G.

Yes to fine tune...or adjust to different flash's with or without triggers.

Which camera are you using? Which lens are you using? Some of the lenses have switches on the barrel. For those which do not , you should find the "off" in the same place where you select the stabilization mode (i.e. mode 1, mode 2). Look under the Rec Menu. It should be there. Without knowing what items you are attempting to work with, that is about as specific as I can get.

Just tested, in manual mode, exposure locks into your desired setting. This function does not seem to be available in automatic mode, but is easily found in manual mode.

No. You can adjust many things manually - ISO. Exposure etc. the flash has two red eye reduction modes.

assuming you are not in full auto..yes..you have enough buttons on the body to change almost all the settings ..such as : wb,iso,s.speed,aperture,picture mode,etc.

Actually, my camera is canon 5d mark 1, it works great, TTL works beautifully. Cheaper than others, simple flash, no whistle and bell if that is you looking for.

I am having this same problem, which I didn't previously have with my nikon...I typically use in auto mode....any tips for settings that will render most photographs useable (right now none of my photos are useable).Beware--I'm a frustrated novice!

I have had substantially better battery life than that with my copy and Eneloop NiMH batteries. However the flash will definitely not work in TTL mode except with a Fuji camera. Slave mode will definitely work fine, and probably manual mode as well.

Yes it will trigger the flash but no communication will be passed through the Hot shoe for TTL exposure settings. Just fire a test shot and make exposure adjustments on the fly. Isn't that what makes Digital Great? P.S. Make sure your in single shot mode unless your shooting at 1/3rd power or less the flash won't trigger for the second,3rd,4th,5th,6th,11th shot. 1-2sec or worse recycle time on that flash.

No, It doesn't support TTL, But I shoot with the flash in manual and have never had an issue.

I don't think the SB-28 works in TTL mode with digital SLRs. You'd have to use A or Manual mode. Might be time to upgrade your flash.

You need triggers that can do TTL, Youngnuo carries a bunch of these options too, buy YN-622 or better yet YN-622 and YN622-TX as controller they work like a sharm for ETTL flash and of course the HSS feature. Be careful to select the right one for your camera CANON or NIKON.

The flash works differently with different settings of course, but I have had no issues with it thus far. I also have a couple of old flashes from when I had my 35mm camera and they both work on the hotfoot on top. There are so many different settings with this camera you can usually find one that works for a lot of different situations, plus if a person is familiar with the manual settings you can do it yourself. I have taken pictures of the moon, grandkids, birds. I really do like this camera.

If your flash has a hotshoe it will work. It won't send TTL information, but that doesn't bother me as I shoot so much in manual anyway and like to be in control of my exposure.
