Hello there!
I've been doing some practice with off-camera flash lately, and there's something strange going on I don't have a clue why is happening and maybe you do
So, I have all ready to play with some waterdrops with the SB-700 in Manual at 1/8 -0.3 power and having so much fun... But whenever I try to set the power to 1/8 or higher, all I get is a black picture as if the lens' cap was on. Switch back to 1/8 -0.3 or lower and we're good again.
Batteries are supposedly good... 4 eneloops I bought last week recharged a couple of hours ago and fired only about 150 pics (at 1/8 -0.3 power)
Only thing I can think of is that the batteries don't have enough charge to shoot more than this power... but is that how it works? I feel like I can keep shooting at that power w/o any troubles but it's just a matter of setting it to 1/8 or higher and all is black. So doesn't seem like it. I don't know, maybe this sounds like a stupid question... help please?
