X-TTL roadmap for Nikon

Najjan

I currently own two V6II triggers and two RF60 flashes and a Nikon Body.

I'm in need for TTL, so i was thinking of buying TTL capable flashes.

I then saw there is a roadmap for X-TTL upgrade on the triggers, on your microsite Nikon is at the end of the map. 

I know it's a difficult question but is there any timing for Nikon, can we expect this still in 2017. 

Thanks in advance and for the fact you guys make great firmware updates.

Hello @Najjan,

Yes, our estimate is December 2017 for Nikon X-TTL firmware.

Thank you for your interest and support!

Hello Antonio,

Would the next x-ttl firmware release for nikon solve the pre-flash problem. If you got it on the v6 series, could you just not replicate it?

I have the v6's (4) and there is no pre-flashes. But I got the v6 ii's (2 so far) as I needed the HSS. So now I have HSS but cannot use the Sekonic L758D any more as the pre-flash firing prevents it. Using the FV Lock does not work either.

Thank you

Antonio

Hi @mclino

Pre-flash is going to stay as long as you need:

1) remote control (of the flash)

2) HSS

You need L-858D if you need to meter the flash.
