Hi, guys new A7II user here, I wanna ask why when i attached the hvl-f43m flash there seem to be some delay from when i press the button to the actual shutter release? It only happen when i turn on the flash, both flash and camera are in manual mode

QUOTE(Eiraku @ Nov 25 2015, 12:34 PM) Not sure what exactly is wrong as I have neither the A7ii nor the F43M, but maybe the shutter is waiting for the flash to build up power in its capacitor? That said, this only happens if you try to do multiple shots at full flash power in continuous shutter mode (considering you're in manual flash mode), or if you're trying to shoot at full flash power directly after turning it on. Shouldn't be a charge problem as the ready light is already on and I'm not doing any burst. It's roughly around 1 sec delay and the power makes no different either on full power or 1/64th power the delay will still be thereThe delay shouldn't be too long in both cases though. On the other hand, the F60M is known to overheat under the first condition (continuous use) so you might be better off with a delay than a baked flash lol. BTW, for you Nikon shooters out there, the Nikon AF adapter for E-mount is FINALLY out and shipping now: http://goo.gl/JynmLo Should work as well as the Canon ones, and it includes PDAF for the A7ii and A7Rii as well... so yeah, now us Sony shooters (un)officially have the widest array of AF lenses lol.  which makes me to suspect there might be some setting in the camera or flash that I missed out causing the delay or i have a defective flash unit |
