Using Godox v860 with Nikon D750 in off camera TTL mode
How-do-you-do all, I am a new member with a question. I was experimenting with my new Godox v860ii equally an off camera flash for my Nikon D750. I am attempting to use the camera'due south pop upwardly wink every bit an optical trigger. So far I cannot get the flash to burn. I had to resort to using my sb700 instead. I do not have the x1 transmitter and I was hoping to do without it. Any suggestions on how I can get this set up to work? Thank you!

The V860II actually has three split slave modes. Only one of them will work in Nikon's CLS wireless system (optical TTL).
If y'all press the [lightning-bolt] button, the flash will cycle between on-camera/CLS main/CLS slave/RF chief/RF slave.
In the on-camera/primary modes, the backlight will be green; in the slave modes the backlight will exist orange. If the icon in the upper left corner is a lightning commodities, it's set to optical/CLS triggering; if the icon in the upper left is an antenna/lollipop, so it's set for RF (radio frequency) triggering. In the RF modes, you would demand an X1T-Due north or XPro-N transmitter on the photographic camera to burn down the flash. In the CLS modes, your pop-up flash in commander mode tin control the V860II.
If your 750D'south pop-up is in CLS commander mode, and the V860II is in CLS slave mode, and information technology's even so not working, check that they're both set up to apply the same aqueduct.
The V860II likewise has S1/S2 "dumb" optical slave modes (similar to SU-4 manner). But these modes are manual-only (no TTL, FP/HSS, or ability control). If you want to play with these, the wink has to exist out of all other master/slave modes, in Thousand, and pressing the S1/S2 soft button cycles through the modes and turns them off. These modes will only work with your D750'south pop-up flash if it'southward out of commander mode. S1 works if the pop-up is in Yard, and S2 if information technology'due south in iTTL.
