Comment on Setting the SB-800 as a “Master Flash Unit” by UM3$H

I have never used D2H and I am not quite sure about the menu settings but if your SB-800 is in hot shoe and define as a master and remote flash unit SB-600 define as a slave in a same group and channel, it should work. Can you mirror the settings explained in article and provide more info?

Comment on How to set Custom White Balance by UM3$H

Did you follow the exact step mentioned in the article? Also did you try without filter? Your camera should be into semi-automatic or Manual mode for custom WB to work.

Comment on Choosing a Release Mode on Nikon D7000 by UM3$H

Here are few things came up in my mind,
1. Is your remote compatible with Camera?
2. Please read (6. Remote Control) in this article and try to set one of three different option in remote control.
3. If you want to take burst shot, you have to set into Continuous burst mode not in single mode.

Im using a PIXEL RW-221 Wireless Remote for my nikon D7000.
I cant get it to work on remote mode. It works only in mUP mode. Any idea why?
I have to use the remote for my HDR bracketing shots. I want to press once and burst the frames. But when in mUP mode I have to click two times for every shot, One for the mirror to go up and other for shutter release.
Do you know how I could get the remote to work on remote mode shown on the dial? I have set it up for quick release but wouldnt budge.
Any help would be appreciated.

Can you please explain little bit more about “exposure is out”? Are you saying your exposure is not correct?

Question please

I am using a D90 with a VF-901RX trigger for flash strobe units. All fires OK but exposure is out?

Thanks
