Re: Canon R6 Mark II / Westcott FJ80 II issue

Answered my own question through a little research and learned that the R6 Mark II has a new type of hotshoe which is the cause of my issues.

Hopefully this adapter will also give me hi-speed sync capability as well: Canon AD-E1 Multi-Function Shoe Adapter.

Any R6 Mark II users should be aware of this information if they are having issues with their flash units, be they Canon or any brand.

I'm considering returning all my new Wescott lights and waiting for the newer, upcoming Canon Speedlite EL-5 which is made to be compatible with the R6 Mark II.

I'll make a decision after I try the adapter out next week.

Retired videographer, now dabbling in photography with a Canon R6 Mark II, three RF primes, and two Wescott FJ 80 II's and a FJ 400.
