Yongnuo RF 603 II-Shutter Release Wirelessly!

Yongnuo RF 603 II-Shutter Release Wirelessly! In this video, I give a quick demo on how the Yongnuo rf 603 flash triggers double as a wireless shutter release. You can use either version, 1 or 2, to be able to trigger the cameras shutter. Just make sure you have the proper camera cord when ordering these flash triggers.

Would two of these work to trigger both the camera shutter remotely and an off camera flash remotely ( one on camera , one on flash - using the trigger button on the unit attached to the flash, to trip flash and shutter ). Or would I need a third to act just as a remote shutter release to do everything I want ?

[@corey688]

Will 2 of these work to trigger remotely both the camera shutter and a remote off camera flash , by pressing the trigger button on the one attached to the flash , or do I need a third to just act as a remote shutter release ?

[@JesseKoukku]

Got a pair of those flash triggers and also got the cable from my intervalometers.. although I prefer the Hähnel Giga T Pro for wireless triggering.

[@johnsantosa4673]

Wow perfect timing, I was looking into these and was so confused on how it worked. Thanks eye

[@colleenhope4801]

Is the cable that was purchased for a canonEOS 750 suitable for for the canon5D m1v

[@scurki]

Eric ! I need your help man !!! How should I set up my camera to use yongnuo trigger with a flash lamp ( sb700 ) Im struggling with the setups :( Can u please help me ?!?!?!

[@fr.mansourazar3432]

Hello Eric, 1- When the RF 603 II is mounted on the Camera in order to trigger a remote flash, does it need to be triggered itself by the built in flash of the camera? Or by a signal from the shoe of the camera? 2- If I DO NOT want the built in flash of the camera to open and flash, but I need only the remote flash to trigger and flash, can this be achieved? 3- Will the remote flash light intensity be also controlled? Or it will always flash to the maximum? 4- Is RF 603 II compatible with Nikon D 5300? I see D5000 and D5100 only in the compatibility list. Thank you.

[@Eric_Rossi]

1. You just need both triggers, dont need the flash 2. you can not use the built in flash 3 you control the flash from the flash unit itself 4 yes, as long as you get the Nikon version it will work

[@VedantRaval]

Hey this is a useful video, thanks for that. A quick question, which eyecup are you using on the viewfinder?

[@Eric_Rossi]

it was from hoodman, they make great eyecups!

[@VedantRaval]

@@Eric_Rossi thank you man, I'll look into it.

[@bachbeats2217]

would this work on a a6300?

[@Vitez07]

Hi there, thanks for the video, just want to find out if you can use these triggers as with long exposures as well? In other words can you hold the trigger in or so like a 20 second shot?

[@Eric_Rossi]

Nah, you would want an actual remote instead of something like this.

[@lorseyjones4807]

Great can I use this setup on my Nikon D500 with the Speedlite connected on top of the trigger on the camera

[@Eric_Rossi]

there would be no need to be wireless then.

[@Davebird51]

Hey Eric, thanks for a great video. I have a question for you regarding these triggers. I use Back Button Focus..Can I still use these using this focusing method without having to revert back to using the shutter release on top of my camera ??

[@Eric_Rossi]

yup!

[@patrickhickey5087]

Tip for anyone using a Nikon D90, the transceiver cannot be mounted to the hotshoe when using the units as a shutter release.

[@Eric_Rossi]

Here is how to use Yongnuo flash triggers as a Wireless Shutter Release! #photography kzbin.info/www/bejne/oKDLpHp_nd2Neqc

[@AgaPiero]

A bit late but just watching your videos trying to find out why the wireless shutter release does not work. All connections are ok but it does not release shutter. Thank you

[@biggerpicturephoto]

Great video, thanks, do you know if you can trigger a off camera flash and your shutter at the same time? I have some yn 600 for triggering my flashes.

[@Eric_Rossi]

thanks man. flash and shutter at the same time? Thats how it normally works? Not sure what you are asking, apologies.

[@biggerpicturephoto]

Sorry that was confusing. what I want to do is this. I have my flash with me say 5m from the camera which is on a tripod. I need to be able to trigger camera and flash in my hand at once. I have yongnuo flashes with yn622c on them. I also have the yn622tx. hope this is clearer 👍

[@Eric_Rossi]

Oh yeah thats the entire point of these triggers! you can have the trigger on the camera and able to fire the yn600 off camera! Check out my review on the yn600, thats exactly how I shot the review samples in that

[@biggerpicturephoto]

Eric Rossi, great, I will. thank you

[@christokashiki5503]

I bought 603N for Nikon d7100. I can get the shutter release to work, but can't seem to get the flash to fire. I set up the both d7100 on manual and sb910 on manual, and insert the 603(set to channel 3) onto the respective hotshoes. What am I missing?

[@Eric_Rossi]

I'm thinking your triggers are on different channels. Check again. Make sure both are on the same channel. Try 1 or A. Also do you have the version 1 or 2 of the triggers?

[@TheChgoJohn]

I've watched a number of videos and, before returning my RF603N II, perhaps you can tell me what I'm doing wrong. I purchased the trigger solely for its remote shutter capabilities. I've followed the instructions and inserted new batteries, connected the receiver to the hot-shoe, and when I press the transmitter's shutter, the green light shines on both units. I'm assuming they are communicating. My camera doesn't attempt to focus, however, and when I fully press the shutter button, a red light appears on both units. I've connected the cable and got the same results. I've changed lenses and attempted to use the triggers in varying light settings. My camera shutter has worked manually in all cases but not when I attempt to employ the RF603N. The camera isn't communicating with these devices apparently. What am I missing? BTW. You're the only person that I've come across who has taken the time to answer these questions. Thank you for your time and help.

[@Eric_Rossi]

I always do my best to respond, its the least I can do for someone who took the time to interact and watch a video. Yeah the key part is the cable, what camera were you trying it with? Maybe it was just faulty but it seems like you did everything right. I would also check to see if they are on the same channel You would see two green lights when button is half pressed. Check that on the inside of the battery cover

[@TheChgoJohn]

Thanks for your quick reply... I've a Nikon D5300. There's a red label on the RF603N II box's side that says the included shutter connecting cable is good for series D5000, among others. I've checked and rechecked the channels and all are set the same. When the cable is used, a green light appears on both transmitter (TR) and receiver (TRX). When the remote shutter button is half-pushed, another green light appears on both the TR and TRX making 2 green lights on each device. When the button is fully pushed, a red light replaces a green on both the TR and TRX. When the cable isn't used, the lights remain off until I half-push the remote shutter. Then 1 light on each glows green. When I fully push the shutter, each of the 2 lights glows red. At no time does my camera attempt to focus or trigger the shutter remotely. I agree with you and believe the problem is with the cable and have ordered a new one from Amazon, where I got the unit. (Much easier to buy a cable than to return the entire thing.) If the new cable doesn't work, however, I'll be returning everything. I'm undecided whether I'll purchase another. Thanks again for your help, Eric. I'll let you know the final outcome.

[@Eric_Rossi]

Sounds like everything should be right, hmmm, hoping its just a cable thing for you as well. But yeah, I cant think of anything else. Most connection issues is when people dont realize the channel connection and matching.

[@TheChgoJohn]

Hello, Eric.The new cable arrived today. I installed it and nothing new happened. Out of desperation -- I really don't want to return now 2 packages -- I switched the devices, changing them as TX or TRX to match their new use and nothing happened. I then set them both to TRX and, lo and behold, the lens focused and the shutter clicked. I replaced the cable with the old and it did not work. Our suspicions were correct: faulty cable, although my miss-setting the TX/TRX switches didn't help matters. (I mention the TRX settings for anyone reading this down the road.) Thanks again for your help and support, Eric. You've a new fan.

[@Runn1ngR10t]

Chgo John how do you switch them from trx and tx?

[@brandon061033]

Can i use this on my a7rii? and does this support bulb mode?

[@Eric_Rossi]

not sure these are made for sony mount yet, if so, yes it would

[@brandon061033]

Sorry, i should have made it clear. I was meant to mention the wireless shutter release side. Anyway, i found it. It works on all major brands of camera with their corresponding cable connectors.

[@wildlifetv6889]

Hei eric! Can you use it as shutter remote for high-speed shots? I mean with continuous shoots at 7fps? thank you :)

[@Eric_Rossi]

these can not be used for HSS, you would need something like kzbin.info/www/bejne/p3ywoZtvmJygadE

[@wildlifetv6889]

thank you, sorry but i don't for trigger the flash but just the shutter. i mean can i use it for high speed shutter release? like 7fps? thank you :)

[@jocelynnightingale3053]

Can I trigger thr shutter while I have a flash mounted on the receiver?

No, once the flash is attached, the triggers engage the flash

Hello sir, i acquired the Yongnuo RF-603C viii and it works great for my speedlight in a softbox. would you be so kind as to tell me if should buy a new st of Yongnuo RF-603C is compatible with a strobe that i wanna buy for a beauty dish ? much appreciated

[@Eric_Rossi]

what strobe? not sure though as I cant test. You can always buy it and return if not

@@Eric_Rossi I live in Morocco and can only buy my gear from the black market and they don't have a quite favorable return policy. Anyways, thank you for the time you took answering me Keep up the good work !

[@richnmib1939]

since these are manual control only, like my YN560 flash, couldn't I use the Canon version on my Nikon?

I believe the trigger on top of the camera wont work. It wont have the right pens to engage.

can i ask u Yongnuo RF-603II Trigger N1 can i use it for Nikon D7100??

Thank you, Eric! Well explained. Simple and clear!

[@Eric_Rossi]

anytime, glad it was clear!

[@sweettooth5737]

Off topic, but wondering if you could do a vid on the 560iv flashes. I have two. Can I use one on camera as Tx ( disabled) and one off -camera as Rx. ?? Other yt vids do not directly address this. So far it seems the on camera must be on to trigger the off cam one. Am I missing something?? Lol. Want to use one simply to trigger 2nd without buying 603....

[@Eric_Rossi]

actually next week my review will be out and will explain that easily! It's a pain to find the right channel on the flash to work with the trigger but yes, you dont need an actually trigger for the flash.

[@sweettooth5737]

***** thanks for the reply! :) I'll be sure to watch the video! I'm guessing channels stay the same but group on the camera flash is turned off? Idk. Lol. I'll re-read book n wait for your vid. I need new batteries anyhow.lol. -they died. :(

Hello Eric, I am desperate :( I own the first versión, which worled perfectly on my old d3100. However I'm trying it for the firdt time on my d610 and even though it does focus, it won't take any pictures. As soon as I try to take a pic a red light will get turned on on both remotes, the other one will just stay green. Do you know what might be wrong? Thanks in advance from Spain x

[@Eric_Rossi]

hmm without seeing it not sure. Are they both still set to the same channels?

[@the_creative_frontier]

is this compatible with Nikon D810 and whats the distance it can fire?

yup its a flash Trigger, just make sure to get the one with the N in the name not the C

I apologize if you have already done one on this topic, but I must have missed it. See below. :)

[@dbdb9806]

So.. I need the cord?

[@Eric_Rossi]

all depends on your camera but with the D700 I needed that exact cable. Most now are just USB

[@dbdb9806]

Eric Rossi thanks. I have the rebel t2i, and 2 years ago when I got the triggers I don't remember having a cord. I have the older ones. Then I was using them for off camera flash but I'm wanting to do some self portraits tomorrow. From what I remember, you put one on the camera, half press the camera shutter to sync, and this SHOULD be it?

[@michaelsantos5808]

What about bulb mode?

[@Eric_Rossi]

it will not help keep it open for bulb mode. You would need an actually remote for that

[@blvckcreativestudio]

wait can i use this on BULB too???!!!?!?!?! :0

Would it work with amazon basics flash and Nikon D7100 ?
