SB800 vs SB600 IR receiving unit strenght?
Posted: Mon Feb 11, 2008 2:01 pm
Hey guys,
I was shooting some stuff out doors the other day using my SU-800 with a SB800 and 600 and notice that I could get the 800 to fire basically 100% of the time, but the 600 was ALOT less reliable even when placed in the same spot? I was wondering if anyone knew whether there was any difference between the 800 and 600's IR receiving capabilities?
The 600 works flawless indoors, so I'm guessing its just the outdoors/full sunlight that might be affecting its IR?
I'm about to buy 3 more 600's and am just concerned if I should atleast make one of those another 800 for safe measure.
Cheers,
Brett
