[QUOTE="Blue439, post: 829326, member: 53455"] Thanks a lot for that detailed comment! I researched it before buying, and normally that receiver, in its latest version with updated firmware (first thing I did upon receiving it) should trigger my SB-900. Will try that over the next few days. There remains the issue of whether I can also use it to [U]change the settings[/U] remotely on the SB-900. Normally (once again), it should work. But I’ve read everything and the contrary about it on the internet and the Godox prose isn’t very clear on the issue. :rolleyes: There [I]is[/I] indeed that button you’re talking about on the battery. I will implement the precautions you recommend anyway. I knew about that head and I have been considering it. I hadn’t clicked to the fact that the lights would be quite a lot heavier than my Indras, but it makes sense because the battery is now on-board and not hooked up via cable. I understand what you’re saying about light stands toppling over in the wind. I do have sandbags but I will be extra careful. I have good stands, payload-wise, but of course the wind is always a risk. I don’t do a lot of outdoor shooting with flashes, so that risk remains minimal. Thanks again for all the interesting info! Will let you know how it goes. :geek: [/QUOTE]
