in V6 II Compatibility
Hi everyone, could you please confirm the full compatibility between the V6II transceiver, OM-D EM-5 Mark II, and the FL-600R speedlight (and eventually for the FL-50R...), especially for HSS (aka Super FP on Olympus)? Thanks in advance! - Roberto

    Hello, just unpacked and tested V6II transceiver, OM-D EM-5 Mark II, and the FL-600R speedlight. After some basic searching I manged to get it up and running. I have however also 2 (old...) Sunpak 5000AF (TTL) for Nikon. What are the possibilities of the V6II in combination with these speedlights?
    Thanks, regards,
    Mark

    Sunpak is kinda old. We don't have it to test and most likely it isn't supported by the V6 II.

    Thank you Ray ... I think I worked it out by trial and error. But I confirms it triggers correctly up to 1/200 in manual mode, but adjustments need to be made on the speedlight itself :-)

    Just to investigate some alternatives for me: In your compatibility list you mention Metz Mecablitz 44 AF-1. This has now been replaced by an AF-2 version. I don't see major specification changes between AF-1 and AF-2. Are you aware of any potential compatitibility issues with AF-2?

    Thanks.
    Regards,
    Mark
