Anyone have try to use the JJC MSA-010 hotshoe adapter with any wireless trigger?
i tried to mount the Yongnuo YN603C on the hotshoe and YN468 flash, i found it is not sync since the sync indicator light is not on.
i have set the switches to same channel.
I mount the YN468 directly on the hotshoe, the flash is working well, but not with the YN603C.
Dunno what's going wrong.
Anyone can enlighten me?

im also facing this problem.. but with yn rf 602..
the hotshoe trigger flash via big round metal at the centre..
sadly the rf602 (and rf603 if im not mistaken) is trigger via proprietary pins...

the solution.. sell your rf 603 and bought cheaper trigger like phottix pt-04

actually, you shouldn't have used flash. use natural light, keeping the glow from the lanterns as the main subject. now, everything is in view, detracting the viewer from whatever you're trying to show (i'm assuming it's the lanterns here, and not the roof tiles). secondly, the image doesn't tell much of a story, half cropped lantern tops and bottoms, and even the name plaque is cropped away. an advice would be, the next time you see a scene that is appealing to you, take a moment 1st to think of how you want to convey the scene into a single image. take note of the subject's edges so that they don't get cropped away. you could employ the rule of thirds to make a comparatively more pleasing shot... but most of all, keep taking photos and don't be shy/afraid from constructive criticisms.

william really sifu!!!

to geek8585, here are two fantastic tutorials on rule of thirds. it's something which is all over in nature, God's creation and masterpiece. and also if you studied mathematics, then this is related to fibonacci's number. just amazing.

geek85, ok like this. The next time you take a pic, ask yourself, "what do I like about this picture?" explain to yourself 1st, what makes the particular picture that you took looks nice. Without convincing yourself, how to convince others?

Rule of thirds is very simple and straightforward. In a photo, have 2 imaginary lines cross vertically and horizontally with equal distance from one another. You will then see a # symbol, correct? Now, your subject, frame it in your camera so that the subject is on the intersecting (crossing) lines in the #. Either 4 of the intersections also can. Take this as a guide 1st, start from here, in the future when you're more experienced, this rule can be 'broken' with more creative approaches.

Apparently the RF603C with wake up function only work on Canon camera. Tested with Nikon DSLR also cannot trigger.

Yes, i returned the RF603 and bought JJC JF-T1 trigger set which just half of the RF603 price.
It triggered easily. of course it have lower quality built and lot less features than RF603.
But no choice, it is cheaper and working for any hot shoe and flash.
Maybe in future consider Aputure Trigmaster.

Use tripod, keep low iso, shutter slower than 1/10s and aperture at lens' sweet spot. Variable here is shutter speed.
