TUTORIAL | Wireless Triggers F.A.Q for CANON & NIKON | Altura Photo®
I must have watched every other video: At 9 minutes, finally, how to trigger the shot and get the flash. Thanks so much!
Great to hear that!
Excellent video! I had my trigger mounted backward on my flash unit. I saw in the video the correct position, turned the trigger around and VOILA - it works! Thank you so much. :)
Great to hear that, enjoy them!
Thank you for taking time to teach us step by step how flash photography works. I’ve had so much troubles but Now I understand 🙌🏽
Hey Stephanie Clark. We are so glad this video was able to help you out. Thanks for watching!
Hi! I just receive this teiggers in the mail today and tried right away. I did the settings the same but why are my photos still look dark or looks like i did not use flash at all. Also i did only in live view with a t6i if that Statement helps.. thank you so much.
Hi, they do not work in live view mode, you need to use them only in viewfinder mode.
The NIKON you're demonstrating this on is not a D3400 (which is what I have). I'm unable to find anywhere on the NIKON D3400 where a wire cable plugs in. Am I missing something?
Hi, this is the D3300 on the video, the D3400 is not compatible with any remote shutters.
Thanks. I'm aware which camera you were using on the video. When I purchased the accessory kit (Flash unit, diffuser, and hood, it just happened to include the remote attachments in your video. I first wrote to that company...and they INSISTED that it was compatible with my D-3400, as if I were nuts for even questioning it. How dare I...right? I appreciate your getting back to me.
We are sorry to hear that, in our AD-s it is noted that the D3400 is not compatible with any triggers that use cables.
Same problem I too facing, cable cannot be used as the camera port is different and cable port is different.
Totally awesome...Thank you so much. Such a great help
Thank you!
Great video and thanks for sharing if I understand it correctly I will not have the ability to trigger both the camera and the multiple flashes remotely?
Correct. It's camera and flash triggering system work independently.
Hello,
I have an issue with my altura wireless flash trigger.
I have connected the trigger with the flash as shoe. and the transmitter is connected on the DSLR D5300.
I have put the DIP switches similar between the two(trigger and transmitter).
I have put the switch on the trigger(3-point switch) in Flash option.
By pressing the camera button,to take a picture, the flash doesn't shooting. Looks like it doesn't have sync between trigger and transmitter.
I have tried a lot of combinations between the DIP switches. Also, I have done the same things as your video, but still nothing.
What could be the problem?
Hi Vasilis! Please send me your order information to: info@gojasales.com and we will be more than happy to help you identify the issue and provide you a prompt solution.
I sent it.
The video is great......but still I have a question......Does this trigger tricks work with Nikon D3300?
Hi Gita, yes they should work with the D3300.
I bought the kit for my Nikon D5300 which came with the speedlight, transmitter, and receiver. When I use the speedlight directly on the camera via hot shoe, the flash works as it’s supposed to, meaning the flash built into my camera does not pop up. However, when I try to use the wireless feature, the built in flash on my camera pops up at the same time the speedlight fires remotely.
Hi, please try to disable the internal flash in the settings.
Just got mine today. Love them! Thank you for the video!
That's great! We're glad you liked it :)
Digital Goja yes! Love them. Work fantastic with my rapid box.
Great!
Lovely. Thanks
Can I trigger two FC-16 receivers one mounted on 5dIII and another attached to a YONGNUO YN685 speedlite by a single neewer FC-16 trigger?
Hi, they should be all compatible but we are not able to confirm that as we do not have any of those flashes or triggers.
Is it possible to use the remote to shoot the camera while having the flashes wirelessly/remotely as well?
Hi JC, unfortunately, they can only trigger the flash unit.
Can canon m50 fire wireless flash by the internal flash without wireless trigger
Hi, yes it can do it in slave mode.
This system of triggers does not work with the Canon T7i on live mode, why I can not trigger the flashes on live mode for self photography ?
Hi, they only work in viewfinder mode, only OEM Canon products work in live view mode.
What about more than 2 flashes & big flashes?
Hi, the triggers should work with up to 4 flashes.
thanks
Is the Altura remote compatible with any other flashes like neewer Tt560 speedlight??
Hello, Chase Ferretti. The Altura Photo Wireless Flash Triggers are universal. They should be compatible with most shoe mount style flashes that could be set to the manual mode. Thanks for watching!
I bout the same flash set up and the flash works well when its attached directly on my Canon T6i. As soon as I mount my flash onto stand , i take a picture through the view finder and the flash fires but my pictures still look dark as if I never used my flash. Any suggestions?
Hi, please make sure that you are using a shutter speed up to 1/200.
Hello, yes I do use a shutter speed of less than than but no luck :(
Please make sure that you have followed the instructions from this video -

when the receiver is on the back view screen does not work i have to use the view finder. The camera i have is T3i
Hi Matthew, the receiver only works in viewfinder mode.
Sir nikon D5200 support ttl flash or manual?
Hi, it supports both!
Could nikon trigger command on canon flash?
Hello, Gordon Danika. The Altura Photo wireless flash and camera triggers are universal. They will work with any camera or flash with a standard hot shoe (not the Canon SL3 or T7). The included camera trigger cable is what differentiates both kits. The Kit designated for Canon will include a 2.5mm Remote Shutter Release cable to 3.5mm and the Nikon kit includes a 2.5mm Remote Shutter Release Cable for Nikon DC-2 Cameras. Thanks for watching!
I have the Altura AP-C1001 set to manual mode with an Altura receiver on it set to flash and I have a receiver on my Canon T4i with the 1/8 cable plugged into the remote port on my camera in manual mode. I'm triggering it with the wireless trigger but the flash isn't showing in the photo at all. It seems like the flash is too fast or slow. What am I doing wrong? I want to be able to walk around with the speedlight and fire the camera/speedlight by remote. It seems like I have everything working together except that the flash isn't showing in the photos. thanks for the reply!
Hi Mike, make sure that the receiver on the camera is set to "camera" and that both, the receiver and trigger are on the same frequency.
Digital Goja what about the receiver on the flash, what does it need to be on? What does the actual flash need to be set to and is there anything I need to change on the t4i? the receiver on the camera is set to flash with the cable plugged in and the flash receiver is set to flash and the flash is on manual mode. they both seem to fire at the same time but the camera isn't capturing the flash.
Hi Mike, you don't plug any cable into the receiver or transmitter to use wireless. Just put the transmitter on the camera (no cable) and attach the flash to the receiver (no cable) and shoot away.
Digital Goja I want to control the flash and camera wirelessly so I can walk around and aim the flash where I want and take photos at the same time. that's why I said the flash and camera have receivers and the trigger is in my hand. the flash isn't showing up in my photos.
You will not be able to control the flash and camera independently. The flash can be triggered wirelessly but not at the same time as the camera. Only if your flash is set on top of the camera. If you set the receiver to camera mode the flash might fire but not in sync with the camera.
I have a canon rebel t6 and I’m trying to set up my flash trigger. It the flash works when I use the test button on the transmitter but not when I take a photo
Hi Brian, please make sure that you are in viewfinder mode when using the triggers.
Digital Goja I am

my receiver don't synchronizing with my transmiter, I already check the battery but still don't work..any sugestions... thank you

Thanks Izzy! I see the error in my ways! LoL!
We're happy to help Devan!
isnt the ttl mode supposed to work remotely off camera? I cant seem to get it to replicate to my flash while off camera?
Hi, the TTL mode works when the flash unit is on the camera, to have TTL remotely you will also need TTL triggers.
Is there any altura nikon hardware that does this ?
Unfortunately, we do not have any TTL triggers.
I love the trypod. Could you tell me please, the reference of that tripod?
Hi Beatriz! It's the Manfrotto Pixi Mini Tripod, currently we are out of stock on it, but when available, you can find it through the following link: digitalgoja.com/manfrotto-mtpixi-b-pixi-mini-tripod-black.html
I have a Nikon D90 Camera and i bought Metz 15MS-1 ring flash for portraight photography. I don't know how to sync the Ring flash with my Nikon D90. I think i am missing something . Can you please guide me ..
Thank you
Hi there! We are not familiar with the brand, we would recommend contacting directly for assistance.
Hi!
I just purchased the set on Amazon and I shoot with a 6D. I notice the cable with the coil does not fit my camera. The connection for a remote is entirely different. Did I order the wrong kit?
Hi! Unfortunately the kit only has a connection for rebel and other crop sensor cameras. For camera remote, you will need a RA-E3 cable.
Hi question i got Nikon and Canon, is there a way that i can use it in both? and also is it compatible with metz studio lights system?
Hi there! Yes, these triggers are manual so you can use any flash and any camera on full manual, the brand specific is only for camera control function using the provided wired remote cable.
I have 4 receivers for three flashes and one for camera, will the trigger activate it all, the flashes fire themselves. What am I doing wrong?
Hi Dave, all the receivers need to be in flash mode and the trigger needs to be mounted on the camera hot shoe. (you cannot use the trigger off camera to fire the flashes and your camera). Please refer to the following short instructional video for more information: ua-cam.com/video/SDGiQpEERDo/v-deo.html
Setup exactly as you did in the last segment and still not working. Altura flash only working intermittently on camera as well. SMH shouldn't be this faulty.
Hi, sorry to hear about this. Please contact our customer service team at info@gojasales.com, and they will be happy to investigate this.
I set the unit up as described, it will not fire the shutter release, toggles all set
Hi Gary, please try changing the batteries and make sure the cable is connected to the camera. If you're still having issues please send an e-mail to info@gojasales.com so that our customer service department can assist you.
Can i use it for my nikon d3400 because it doesn't have a mic jack
hi there! Yes, you can use it on the Nikon D3400. You can get it here: a.co/1bEOcJk
I don’t think that this flash works with my canon 20d
It should work on it
my trigger came with the hot shoe how do i put on the reciever???
i cant put the reciver on the camera please help fast
Hi there! Please explain your issue a bit further. You can mount the receiver on the camera's hot shoe and then tighten it in place with the tightening radial.
Digital Goja the thing is i dont have the mount that is supposed to be on the reciever to put on the hot shoe i have it on the transmeter
Hi there! Please send our customer service department a quick e-mail with a photo of both your receiver and your transmitter, as well as your order ID number so that we can assist you. E-Mail: info@gojasales.com
Thanks so much!...the instructions that come with the Altura kit are so bad they should be criminal.
You absolutely don't have to teach me how to put the Batteries!!!!! That's a wasting of Time, and i am here not to get Information that no one needs when he searches for Trigger Tutorial!
Otherwise Thanks for the other new info.
However it tooks you so long to get to the main Point!
