Flash works fine on the camera, set up the wireless controllers, nothing, remote unit lights up and responds to the focus being activated, the remote buttons work fine to trigger the shutter, but no flash??

May 31, 2015 12:37 | #10  Permanent banJust throwing it out there, but this isn't the first thread I've seen of YN products mis-behaving on the 6D. The 622Cs look like a great option to me. Some folks love them, some can't make them work. I'll read along, now. WARNING: I often dispense advice in fields I know little about!

After reading countless contradictory reports, I've figured it out, the mk1 isn't compatible, the mkII is, and guess what I bought??
