antigallican Posted September 17, 2019 Share #1 Posted September 17, 2019 Advertisement (gone after registration) Please forgive me if I have missed a post on the Leica SF C1 + SL. I have searched. Has anyone established whether the Leica SF C1 will fire a Nissin D700i? I have a pair which I use as slaves to my SF40. Taking all three flashes off camera would be handy.

Advertisement Posted September 17, 2019 Posted September 17, 2019 Hi antigallican, Take a look here Leica SF C1, SF40 and Nissin D700i. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
sillbeers15 Posted September 17, 2019 Share #2 Posted September 17, 2019 In Nissin publication all NAS system flashes respond to SF-C1 Commander. However when the firmware in the individual flash need to recognise the Leica camera. Therefore any firmware loaded onto flashes before the SF-C1 does not recognise Leica cameras. Till date, I’ve only gotten the latest firmware (v5) downloaded from Nissin website loaded into Nissin MG10 that works on my Leica M10 and SL. I’ve tried pairing SF-C1 with earlier Nissin i60, the trigger release on the Leica camera cannot fire the flash despite successful pairing (test button on SF-C1 could fire the i60 flash). Don’t try on the older i700, you’ll just be wasting your time. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nicci78 Posted September 23, 2019 Share #4 Posted September 23, 2019 (edited) What a shame. And what a mess. Leica should give up its proprietary hot shoe. Just get into Nikon version bandwagon. Or Olympus/Panasonic in order to share lenses and accessories within the L-mount alliance. Same as the m4/3 alliance.
