Hi All,

It's my first post here. I am a complete newbie to PCB products and am having a little trouble with the CC. I have 2 Einsteins , a CC and 2 CSXCV plus light modifiers, etc. I am also shooting with Nikon D700 and D300 cameras which have a base ISO of 200.

The default settings on the CC seem to be ISO 100 and 1/250 shutter speed. I have read the instructions supplied but cannot understand how I adjust the ISO and shutter speed settings on the CC. I want to change the settings to ISO 200 but cannot seem to do it. I had assumed that the CC would read the ISO on my D700 then adjust accordingly but it is not doing this. It just remains at ISO 100 no matter what I have the camera set at.

Sorry for the newbie question. I would appreciate any advice that you can throw my way!

Cheers
Allan

The CyberSync system and you camera will not communicate with each other except to pass a "fire" command. To adjust the ISO, go to SETUP>FLASHMETER>then use the left joystick up and down to adjust ISO. Using the same joystick left and right will adjust shutter speed.

OK, thanks for that! I had wrongly assumed that it would track the camera's settings.

Cheers

The CC is slick but it isn't that slick ;)

Alos, be aware that if the CC resets (even if the batteries just lose contact for a bit) the ISO and shutter speed default to factory settings, they are not remembered.

Don't ask how I found this...
