[QUOTE="Blue439, post: 829598, member: 53455"] If, by “the one I linked earlier”, you mean this one: ... then that one is the X1R – N, and that’s the exact same one I bought. It has the problems I describe above: [LIST] [*]can fire the Nikon flash but only “locally”, by pressing the TEST button on the X1R – N itself; [*]canNOT fire the Nikon flash remotely from the X Pro II – N transmitter on the camera (i.e., when I actuate th shutter, the transmitter sends a signal but the Nikon flash does not go off); and [*]cannot SET the Nikon flash, i.e., change the power setting on it remotely. [/LIST] And yes, I tried all this while in M mode, which is the way I usually work with my flashes. I have tried to find the answer to my question (“Which Godox gizmo will allow me to set and fire the SB-900 remotely from the X Pro II N trigger?”) all over the internet, no cigar. I have some “this gizmo will fire it” answers (X2T – N), but no explicit confirmation on “this gizmo will fire it [U]and[/U] set it remotely”. I have asked the Strobepro outlet guys, they have very detailed and well-made tutorials on Youtube about using Godox gear, waiting for them to respond, if they ever do. If worse comes to worst, I’ll buy a Godox cobra flash with a built-in receiver, so that I’ll be sure it’ll work with the X system, and I’ll keep the SB-900 for when I need to shoot with on-camera flash (not often).
