Wouldn't you know it, I buy a bunch of stuff to get my flash off-camera, and the day it comes, my flash stops working.
Any ideas what might be happening? I set my flash off camera through an umbrella, and was triggering it with my pop-up (my triggers haven't arrived yet). It worked amazingly for the first 10-15 shots, but then quit working. I THINK I heard a popping noise, but I can't remember exactly. Anyway, my flash stopped firing after those 10-15 shots. It beeped several times and the red button on the back blinked several times, but no flash. I tried to fire the flash from on-camera; the red button blinked several times, but did not fire. I tried pushing the red button to fire it, and nothing happened. Everything else works just fine on the flash. All the menus and everything.
I called Nikon, and they walked me through a bunch of things, but none of it worked. They advised me to send it in for repair with an estimate of $109.
Has this happened to anyone else before? What was it?
Like I said, this would happen the day all my flash accessories are set to arrive. I feel crushed.
Thanks for your thoughts.
