[QUOTE="WayneF, post: 350829, member: 12496"] The manual at your link (page 5, How It Works) says [FONT=sans-serif]The RadioPopper PX Transmitter “listens” to the light signal being [/FONT] [FONT=sans-serif]created inside the master flash unit or remote commander on your [/FONT] [FONT=sans-serif]camera’s hot shoe. The PX Transmitter sends this signal by radio where [/FONT]it is read by the RadioPopper PX Receiver. Should work same as commander, which does work. If Commander says "FP flash, do this and that", popper should simply relay that command to the flash. Note I have never seen a Popper, and am otherwise clueless about them. Just reading their words. I don't know why you see a line at 1/320, I never have with D300 or D800. I suspect some radio trigger is being used, which adds its own delay. Try it direct on hot shoe, no radio, and I bet you see no line. Many radio triggers barely do 1/200. But FP mode is different anyway.. no sync, no lines. The FP flash is triggered on before the shutter is opened, and remains on until after it closes. No sync, no lines. But.... only about 20% power, and shutter is only motion stopping capability.
