I don't have any complaints about my Pocket Wizard Plus IV. It seems to work every time, with no issues. I would recommend this to anyone with a Canon 5D Mark iv.

Dependable Equipment

Great!

The are Amazing and I would highly recommend

Pocket Wizard

I ve been using the PW Plus III system for a long time.  This transeiver allow me to use a flash on camera and select the different strobe lights more easy.  Great quality.

Great addition

I purchased a pair of IV's with the idea of using one to remote trigger a camera. They will fire the camera but it will not allow you to push half way to focus. To do this you need a Pocket Wizard III to allow you to press half way to focus and then fire the IV. Also, i usually use back button focus and the combination i describe above will not focus, you have to have it set for the normal shutter release button to focus and then the pocket wizards will focus/fire the camera. I think the Pocket Wizard web site is misleading about the IV and the focus issue.

Will not focus a remote camera

One of the things I like best about this PocketWizard is that it allows me to use my SB 600 speedlight when shooting OCF with other lights without complication, Very lightweight, may seem flimsy but OK.

Versatility

The Plus IV fills the bill for me and my OCF needs. Allows me to easily see what zones are on and allows an on camera flash when needed. A very useful compliment to my lighting equipment.

Pocket Wizard Plus IV is just what I needed!

It works as advertised, but it was not well designed and built to support a flash piggybacked on top. The weight of the flash is too heavy and the body of the transceiver started to crack at the seams, after the 2nd wedding I shot. The plastic is just cheap and not durable for what it's intended to do.

Works great but built is awful

Honestly I wish I would have just gone with a setup that was already built in a flash system.

Love/Hate

This item is doing the job I wanted it to, however, I feel it's a bit over priced. So therefore I just can not give it 5 stars. You asked.
