question

Is the transmitter compatible with Sony and Canon cameras?
Asked by: Mathias
The transmitter has a standard hot shoe with one contact point, so it is not brand specific. There is no electronic interaction between the Skyport and the camera other than the camera's signal for flash triggering. As long as the camera has a standard ISO hot shoe, you may use the Skyport. The Skyport HS does interact with the camera's electronics, so that transmitter will be brand specific.

question

Can the sync cord be used with a speed light like the SB900 so that this unit acts as a receiver for the newer Skyport HS?
Asked by: Felipe B.
I'm not sure because I don't use the Nikon SB900

question

will this work to trigger both a D-lite IT 4 and D-lite RX 4?
Asked by: Anonymous
I believe this will trigger any Elinchrom light. However, the best bet is to contact Elinchrom and ask them.

skyport (flash duration) table explained?

What exactly are you referring to when you say flash duration table? How fast it will react with the shutter of the camera?

question

What is the cord the Skyport SPEED Transmiter works with?
Asked by: Andriana M.
Andriana, you asked a second question, asking if you were to order a second and in need of me to provide a link. First, the cable attaches to the lens; if you are shooting a large format camera, you lens will have a silver pin on the left side, this cable fits into that pin. IT DOES NOT RECHARGE THE BATTERY! The battery is replaceable. You DO NOT NEED A SECOND unit, this will fire your power pack via radio transmission. Sorry for not responding earlier, I was required to pay attention to students given it is the end of the term, they had projects to complete...Best of luck, if you have an issue with my response, please respond.James M Locke
