Flash Shoe Sync
| Powered by phpBay Pro |
I have two Britex studio lights with umbrellas synched up to my camera. When I tested it out at home the night
before my shoot, everything worked fine. I check the bulbs and the fuse...everything seemed to be working out fine.
However, the following morning on the day of the shoot one of the lights was not flashing when I was doing a test shot. I proceeded to make the light flash by pressing the test button on the light and it worked fine.
Then, I moved the synch chord that was plugged into the flashing light and plugged it into the non flashing one. When I did a test shot, the other light was not flashing. However, it did when I manually flashed it.
Could it be the synch chord and/or shoe? I would like some ideas before I got out and buy a new chord and/or shoe.
I've exhausted anything that I might think it is, however, I'm not THAT familiar with the inner workings of lights/flash etc.
PLEASE HELP!!!
1. Is the power switched on is the socket working try plugging the other light in to the same place to see if that works
2. Is the sensor in range of the other flash or covered
3. Is the lead damaged and the flex to the mains supply
4. Check the bulbs
5. Check the fuse in the unit and in the plug
6.check internal wiring (take it in to some place that can do it for you)
Good luck
