Too many defective?
By Flash boy from Ontario on 6/18/2007
Pros:
Strong Construction
Cons:
Bulky
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Tried with Canon 430EX without successful. Either using Canon 20D or studio lighting, it couldn't trigger the flash except the Pocket Wizard Plus II. It will trigger just fine.
Returned the item and replaced it. Again, I'm not be able to trigger it.
I went to the other camera store and asked the salesperson to show me the demo of Wein slave and he couldn't make it flash. Another defective? Three of them?
I'll go for simple slave like peanut.

 
the Slave solution for those pre-flashes

Pros:

Cons:
not "pre-flash" marked
Best Uses:
Fill Flash, Lighting, Night Photography, Photography
Describe Yourself:
Hobbyist/Enthusiast
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I would recommend that Wein engrave this unit with the notation "for Pre-Flash use only". This unit could be mistakenly used in a normal flash application, where it will not work properly. This error will happen if you have many of these units. Other than this, it is an excellent product. Much more usable than my old Vivitar slave...
