Originally posted by MarkJerling I see there are 10 5- and 4-star reviews on B&H, 3 3-stars and 7 1- and 2-star reviews. Some of those same posters have also left identical reviews on the Adorama site. I can report that every test I have thus far performed with my V6II and RF60X has been successful. I think the build quality is very good and the triggers are affordable at US$95 each. Both flash and trigger fits perfectly on my Pentax.
I feel the 1-star reviews are possibly users who have not read the instruction manuals properly before use. The manuals are well written and reasonably easy to follow.
I use to make review on the V6II too. I discovered the battery cage is very thin and the most easily to brake. so i don't think abou built quality...
where as the comlex R930, in the contrast. with too simple manual, I think never a user can imagine how powerful or complex it is before make a try. It looks simple outside.
AND, review can be forged and comments can be biased. the secret is , experience and time.
I quit the v6II because
comparing to the R930, it is too ancient function. manual without light meter is paintful. and very unprofessional.
the v6ii cost 30 USD would be reasonable. but I would not use these even given free. too large and heavy. the r930 cover it and tiny.
TTL make shoting easier and possible for catch. light meter make manual professional.
