    Is the flash workable with a Nikon D800

    Is the flash workable with a Nikon D800
    Asked by: steven
    No, this is meant to work on Canon systems. So it may mount, but you will not have full functionality on a Nikon camera.

    Has there been a firmware update in the last ...

    Has there been a firmware update in the last year? Can we use the LEDs as a proper modeling light, or will the flash still not fire when the LED's are on?
    Asked by: Alan
    There are no firmware updates mentioned for the flash currently. When the LED's are on, the flash will not fire so the LED does not work well as a modeling light. The Godox V1 would be a better option if you want a flash with a modeling light: https://bhpho.to/3CbWXP8

    Can Canon Speedlite 430EX III-RT in radio mode controll this flash ??
    Asked by: Luis
    Unfortunately it cannot. In receiver radio mode it can only receive a signal from Yongnuo RF602, RF603, YN560-TX Pro, YN 560 IV, YN660, YN862, or similar triggers or flashes with 602/603 transmitter control function.

    The YN650EX-RF TTL Speedlite can be triggered with the YN622C-TX, but you must have one of the Yongnuo YN-622C II E-TTL Wireless Flash Transceiver for Canon (2-Pack), BH # YOYN622CII to receive the signal. https://bhpho.to/3wcHURY
