Problems with Fujifilm X-Pro2 and Nikon SB-700
I'm having a trouble getting the V6 II to work with this setup. I had it working briefly, but now it doesn't. The V6 II will not auto recognize my camera. I'm powering up the camera and holding the shutter release half-way down while I switch on the V6 II. It fails to recognize the camera. The flash will fire, but I can't control the power on it. If I set the V6 II camera setting to Fujifilm, the flash won't fire at all!
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Kurt

Ok, so I've done further testing with my X-Pro1 body, and the trigger works perfectly with the X-Pro1. Unfortunately, it will still not recognize my X-Pro2 or function correctly. I've updated the V6 II firmware, and have tried swapping the two units repeatedly. I may get it to auto-recognize the X-Pro2 o out of every 5 or 6 attempts (if I'm lucky), but then I can't repeat it. Has anyone else successfully used this unit with an X-Pro2, and if so, how did you get it to work?
Thanks,
Kurt
I wouldn't recommend this firmware version in general, but JoshTomalin reckons that V1.1.001 is the key to make the V6II work with the X-Pro 2.
If this indeed works, you should be able to wait for Cactus to fix a bug in their latest V6II firmware version.
