Transmitter compatibility?

Yariv Alhadef · Mar 31, 2024

I have two peedlites:
580EX
600EX-RTii
I can operate both as master and slave.
How can i operate both using a transmitter/trigger?
Which transmitter do I need?
I am using R5

Joking!
I think you can use an ST-E2 and put the 600EX in optical mode.

If you can wait, the v3 might be a good option also as the v1 and v2 haven't been as reliable for some..

None of the ST-E3 versions will trigger the OP’s 580EX. That flash can only be triggered optically (unless used with a 3rd party radio trigger like PocketWizard).

Please forget what I said because someone posted elsewhere saying the radios in the v1, 2 and 3 transmitters are the same.

Frequency: 2405 - 2475 MHz
Modulation System: Primary modulation: OQPSK; Secondary modulation: DS-SS
Channel: Auto, 1 - 15
Wireless Radio ID: 0000 - 9999

So if the issues are related to wi-fi and interference, the v3 is likely going to act the same.
