Nissin i60 and Nissin i40 High Speed ​​Sync Firmware Update for Fujifilm Cameras Available

According to a Nissin distributer in the Netherlands (and to some more feedback I got from FR-readers), the firmware update for the Nissin i40 and Nissin i60 flashes is available now to enable HSS for Fujifilm cameras.

To get the update you will have to send in the units to them.

I waited to share the news, until it’s official on Nissin’s website, but now that a distributor asks customer to send in their Nissin gear for update, I recommend you to contact an official Nissin Service Center.

Firmware updates for the Nissin Air 1 and Nissin DI700 will be available in mid June.

Here is the news at the Dutch distributer (google translated)

Nissin Air 10s Release Postponed. Sony Version in July. Fujifilm & Co To Be Released in the Following Months

Back in February here, Nissin announced the Nissin Air 10s.

At that time, Nissin planed to release the Sony version in April, followed by Fujifilm & Co versions in the following months, but it seems there will be a delay.

In a press release of April 28, Nissin says that the launch of Sony version has been postponed to July “and the other models will gradually be released to the public in the following months.”

You can pre-order the Fujifilm version of the Nissin Air 10s at BHphoto, where it is currently still marked as available on Jul 18, 2017, but I guess this will change soon.

We will strive to be sincerely able to respond as soon as possible.
