Review on Neewer Wireless Speedlite Receiver Universal Camera & Photo by Predrag Hall

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I can't establish a secure connection to my Canon 6D.

Bought the print 3 months ago. It only worked sporadically. I thought the problem was in my flash or camera settings. I have changed the trigger channels and tried many different flash and strobe configurations and tests. I just found out that it was a contact issue and that lightly pressing the trigger from behind always fires my gear, but the flash only fires when I press it forward and I can't even turn on the self-timer and get the trigger hook , to shoot at it without hand. I order the Altura Dual Trigger Trigger Set and can use it as a wireless remote, it was $15 more expensive but much more useful and works flawlessly, I lost so many great photo opportunities trying to use this trigger at 2 fashion shows and 1 more use shooting which I would like to give minus stars. I'll try to contact them and hope to at least get a working replacement, but wanted to post my experience with this trigger here in case it's helpful to others. On the other hand, this set was recommended to me by a fairly well-known semi-known photographer who advised me to buy it, but my experience with what I got wasn't very good.

Pros
  • Large selection
Cons
  • Sad packaging
