I am trying unsuccessfully to use a pair of Yongnuo RF-603N to trigger my Alien Bees 800 and need help finding out if I am just wasting my time.
When I hook up the receiver using an auxiliary synch cord it fires the unit when I press the transmitter button as long as it is not mounted on my camera. I tried mounting the transmitter unit on both my D600 and D5000 and when I press the shutter button the Alien Bees does not fire. I can remove the transmitter from the camera, press the transmitter button and the light fires just fine. Once I mount it back on the camera nothing happens. Am I wasting my time or is there just some setting or adapter I am missing? Please don't bother recommending other radio units or other light units, etc. I know there are other combinations that will work. I am just trying to see if the RF-603N will fire the Alien Bees 800.
