[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 662999, member: 13090"] I'm glad it helped. My Yongnuo flashes were driving me nuts until I stumbled on that solution. My suggestion for off-camera is to simply NOT use TTL. Just... Don't. It's sooooo much easier working with OCF when your speedlights/exposure is done is full manual. If you haven't already found the Strobist website and the excellent tutorials for using off-camera flash, drop everything and start with [url=http://strobist.blogspot.com/2006/03/lighting-101.html][B]Lighting 101[/B][/url]. This will get you up and running. Since it sounds like you have the required kit you can ignore the equipment suggestions and get down to setting up and using the flashes in Manual Mode. Apologies if you've already found this site and put it to use. [COLOR="#FFFFFF"].....[/COLOR] I believe there is more than one solution but I do know one in particular is to use the FV lock on your camera. You meter the shot using TTL then the manual output can be adjusted on the Controller and the speedlights then fire without a pre-flash. I'm a little unclear on how to do that, step-by-step, because I don't use a meter. I should probably get one but I can get exposure dialed in using a couple test shots so I've not dropped dime for a proper meter just yet. Oh, and of course you can avoid this whole pre-flash issue by NOT using TTL.[COLOR="#FFFFFF"].[/COLOR] :) [/QUOTE]
