RoboSHOOT is ready to announce the release of test firmware 2.0.6 today. I don’t have a lot of details yet because the developer is polishing the firmware for release, but he gave me permission to inform my readers. I am currently using an Impact Venture TTL-600 Battery-Powered Monolight Kit with Nikon Controller along with my RoboShoot MX-20 to successfully sync up to 1/4000 of a second with my Fujifilm GFX 50S and 1/8000 of a second with my X-T2. TTL isn’t functional for me, but it should be in the future. Profoto lights currently supports TTL and HSS in manual, I’m sure other systems with Nikon controllers will work, since the developer didn’t design the firmware for my lighting setup.
If you currently own a MX-20, all you will need is the app to update the firmware. You can find a guide here. If not, you can buy a RoboSHOOT from B&H Photo along with my lighting setup (RoboShoot MX-20 and Impact Venture TTL-600).
I will have more details about the update soon. Hopefully, TTL will be working and there will be reports of more lighting kits compatible with the RoboSHOOT MX-20. The product has been solid for me since receiving it, and I would recommend it to anyone looking to use HSS outside of the Fujifilm EF-X500.
