I have a Leica SL and CL and use the CL generally as a light weight back up. The SL works very well with a Nikon compatible Profoto Air TTL trigger but when I put the trigger on the CL, which seems to have exactly the same pin configuration, the flash will not fire. The link between trigger and flash works fine; it's the connectivity between the CL and the trigger that seems to be the problem. Any ideas or suggestions welcome. Thanks David

Hello I'm new to this forum and Leica camera having only changed to Leica in the last 6 months. I use a mixture of Broncolor and Profoto flash packs and I was wondering if anyone has had issues with getting remote triggers to fire with their SL cameras. I have an SL2 and just recently an SL3 but firing flashes using either a broncolor RFS trigger (its an older trigger with one pin on the bottom) and both Profoto Air remote (non TTL) and the Profoto Connect remote for Leica (which is brand new) flash triggering is unreliable and intermittent. Has anyone had experience with this? I thought originally it may be an issue with the hotshoe on my SL2 (as I bought it second hand) but I'm having the same issues with the SL3. I do wish it had a flash nipple (call me old school) as it would be nice to have backup flash firing option. Is there a menu setting that I'm missing or any adaptor anyone can suggest? Just for context I'm not a newby at photography, I have been a professional ad shooter for 25 years and most of my work has been using Phaseone equipment (which I still use) but have recently swapped out of Canons (R5/R3)for 35mm. Thanks in advance E
