K3 flash sync doing strange things
I've been having issues consistently fire off-camera lights with my K3... now I'm trying to cheat here, but it's just not working. And I fear it's getting worse.
I have the Yongnuo YN-622N trigger sets. Yes, these are supposed to only work on Nikon. BUT, I've found that I can fire them using the flash sync port. Or at least I was able to.... This past weekend it was sending the signal, but it wasn't trigger the receivers. BUT it would trigger a flash hooked up via sync cord from one of the receivers. Giving up no this, I switched back to my simpler setup of my Elinchrom universal transmitter/receiver combo (just center pin on the hot shoe) and even that wasn't firing now. Which consistently would fire every time in the past. I throw the same transmitter (elinchrom) on my K5 and D800 and they fire every time.
The funny thing is, it will fire with my Pentax flash on the shoe, but no triggers on the shoe. The Elinchrom trigger will still fire via sync cable.
