TURTLE-Balage

Hi. In case the Backscatter trigger doesn’t fit somewhere and TTL is needed. The new software for the TURTLE trigger will be available soon. The first tests have been completed, and they went quite well. I’m attaching a video of the new s-TURTLE 2 SMART+ trigger and the HF-1. https://www.facebook.com/reel/1152505352922785

I will thinking about that. Now we are working on the TURTLE 3 version.

I understand your frustration. Unfortunately, the photo you uploaded was misleading to me because the trigger was in focus. We have to accept that there are situations where a photo of housing alone does not clearly show whether our trigger is compatible. I' d also like to add that no manufacturer is willing to collaborate with third-party accessory companies. It is impossible to buy and test every case, camera, or flash available on the market. We invest a lot of money in testing and keep a large stock of flashes and cameras, but there is no amount of money that would allow us to answer every question instantly. Pavel and I do our best to help every customer, but it would be much easier if people contacted us directly . Im sorry for misunderstanding your question. In this case i see the normal trigger does not fit there. Sorry Balazs

Dear Adventurer Sorry, I did not notice that there is an accessory built into your housing. I can see it now in the photo. You need to remove that, as the factory Marelux trigger takes up the space. So, remove it, and I think it should work.

Hello. As far as I know, there is plenty of space for our trigger in the Marelux housing. I have been using the 5mm LED in the Sony A7 IV Marelux housing for years, and it works perfectly. Here is the link about the 5mm leds: https://www.trt-electronics.com/shop/led-adapter-replacement-5-mm-normal-led/8/ So if you order the e-TURTLE 2 manual trigger with these leds you can use it in Marelux housing. https://www.trt-electronics.com/shop/e-turtle-2-manual-with-15-cd/47/ If you have any question just write Us.

Hello,, Unfortunately, I didn't realize that the GH5/GH6 had already been tested, so I was able to rent one and conducted the tests myself. It works perfectly in normal optical TTL mode. Unfortunately, the WL mode has not been tested yet, and the PANASONIC (RC) mode does not run. There are many active projects right now, so I haven't had much time to deal with this, but I will dedicate some time to it soon. I will share the results either on the website's blog or on Facebook and Instagram. Have a nice evening.. 🙂

Hello, yes, it remains in that state, but it only activates between 1/10 and 2 seconds. Basically, I originally designed this function for myself, but I integrated it into the SMART systems. Unfortunately, it won’t be included in manual triggers. This is a more expensive SMART feature, but I’m working on the Canon TTL trigger and hope to bring it to market soon.

Happy New Year to everyone! This year, we aim to dedicate more time to addressing technical questions. As part of this effort, we’ve written a brief description of a feature available in the TURTLE SMART Nikon and Sony versions. Take a look, and feel free to reach out if you have any questions! 🙂 https://www.trt-electronics.com/blog/stroboscope-mode-with-smart-triggers/70/

Ohh sorry... Yes its a compact system. All pins are soldered to the pcb. I hope the new one will works flawlessly. 🙂

I’m sorry that the trigger broke. It’s likely that the spring behind the pin has snapped. If you send it back, we can repair it. The differences between the triggers can be read on the website. But briefly: The only difference between the Mobie and the SMART 1 is the connector that leads to the cable. The Smart 2, however, is designed for the newer high-end cameras.

HI. I bought a new 21700 li-ion accus from panasonic which is 5000mAh also but the current is 35 A maximum and the strobe works with them. So the conclusion is the mimimum current is 20A.

HI... I bought an HF-1, but it doesn't turn on. When I turn the rotary switch, the control LED flashes blue for a moment and then goes out. It doesn't light up green. Has anyone encountered this problem? The accus: 21700type 3,6 V 5000mAh.

It seems that some dirt might have gotten between the flash pin and the internal panel. Rotate the pin with pliers, and it might work.

HI. Sorry,, the last month was extremly busy. So this black line a the top is sync problem. I never seen same problem with popular strobes, but the SUPE-D was never tested by me. The MF-2 works perfect. In the past few weeks, I have been testing a few new flashes on the market, and I noticed that manufacturers do not fully test their products. The sync of the Sony trigger flash comes from the camera and is transmitted to the trigger LEDs within 1-2 microseconds, which should not cause such a problem. So, I don't think this is a trigger issue. However, I am happy to take some shots with an oscilloscope and a light transducer to measure the time between the trigger signal and the flash of any underwater flash. 🙂 Just for sample. This is a preflash power from Z330.
