Hi guys, I have a request for those of you who are using D7100 with SB700 / SB900 / SB910. Try to take a few pictures with the same settings on the camera and flash, identical frames. The flash must be în TTL or TTL-BL straight forward or bounced.
When I do that one or two of max 10 frames are underexposed. The flash is firing but very little power. The issue is more visible if the flash is bounced from a ceiling or wall. The pictures can be 10 or 15 sec apart so there is no battery going bad issue. There is nothing wrong with flash as it has been verified. I tried this on another D7100 and on mine I tried SB700/900/910. The problem only occurs when using TTL or TTL-BL. If the flash is in M mode or using fvlock everything works fine.
The camera had been sent to service 2 times by now and they said that is nothing wrong. I opened up a topic on a forum in my country and since then other people confirmed the problem exists.
This is a serious issue for me because I'm an event photographer and I'm using flash and ttl guite often. I couldn't find anything on this forum about this and I'm wondering if you guys spotted this problem.
