The problem here is that if you are using the built-in iTTL and the YN560 as a key light, it will not be used in the initial iTTL light computation so you have the potential to overexpose your subject. One thing you can do is use the FV Lock feature which will eliminate the pre-flashes. So you might be able to get it to work by using just the built-in and maybe one additional iTTL strobe, but in my experience if you add too many strobes you can't get it to work regardless of whether you select S1 or S2 on the YN560. I suspect the problem is that as you add more strobes there are more pre-flashes involved and it exceeds the time delay for the S1 and S2 settings. I have never found a way to reliably use the YN560 in commander mode in all situations, regardless of settings. I want to figure this out, and 2) more importantly, I don't have any AAA batteries with a charge right now. Why don't I just USE the wireless triggers I have? Two reasons: 1. But at least, I'll be a dolt who can fire their flash properly.

I feel like I am just missing something really simple, and I'm gonna feel like a dolt when someone tells me what I'm doing wrong.

The YN is set on full power, by the way, simply to make sure I'm getting as much light flash as possible. But then, both it AND the OCF go off, and I suspect the resulting light is simply from the built-in, not the YN560. So far, the only way I've managed to get the flash to actually affect the photo is by setting the built-in flash to manual, with Commander mode. IS there a way to set this up so that, using just the commander mode (not triggers), I can use the flash off-camera and NOT have the built-in flash go off as well? The photo is just as dark as if the flash had not fired. It "works" in that, when I take a picture, the flash fires. I have the D7000 built-in flash in Commander mode and the flash set to slave mode, s1 specifically. Maybe when I've done it before I've used my wireless triggers.Īnyway, I am looking for SPECIFIC settings to make these two specific items play well together, not for general advice. I could swear I've done this successfully before, but now I'm having no luck at all using my flash, Yongnuo YN560, with my D7000, OFF camera.
