    Well i ve had a not very good experience with the turtle but despite this i must say that Balazs still refunded me the full amount and i still haven't even sent him back the unit. Balazs was certainly very reactive to my mails yet it's been hard to communicate at times.  I might have been unlucky with that unit it happens. One thing that really sucks on the trigger is that there is no visual aid to notify you when its on or off a little led on the side would be quite nice. 

    I the end i am taking back and apologise about  what i said about the product it does work. The trigger was not working because the camera was on silent mode this cancels any flash triggering. My experience was a disaster and could ve been handled differently and make a difference but like i said balaz reimbursed me in full i still haven't been able to send him back the unit will do that asap.

    Wait wait wait, besides you and me, how many board members were on that trip? LOL, I really should talk to people more...

     

    This is actually quite similar to my experience on Sony a6300. Before I used to use a Weefine Smart Focus 1000 for focus lighting, and found that it really struggled to lock focus unless I added the light from both Retra Pro modeling lights and often the spotting torch as well (I'd hold it with my ring and pinky fingers of the left hand, pointing it at the subject, as the rest of the hand was holding up the camera handle). This trip I put my old Archon D36V on the cold shoe, and found that focusing got a lot easier. Still not perfect, but not as much of a struggle as it used to be. It's kinda worrying though, that a brand-new flagship body is exhibiting similar issues to an eight-year-old camera that retailed at a quarter of its cost.

     This is too funy man i just realised lol thats so funy that we were together on the same trip and didn t realise !!

    I think you are right about focus light i'm looking as we speak to order quite a few lights im probably going to go with big blue for the line im still not sure if i should go with 5000 lumen or 9 000 lumen i will add some focus lights smalled than 20 lumen galia even if i use it at half power...

     

    I have done some research yesterday mike bartick is also on a z8 he is using the f105 the z105 and seems to be also using the 24-50  but with the wacp-1 instead of the wwl1 not sure if the focusing distance is better with the wacp...
