The Pocket Wizard Flex TT5 pairs well with the AC3 controller to provide consistent triggering with remote strobe control on compatible strobes. I highly recommend the PW Flex TT5 and have used it extensively with our Einstein strobes.

I have used Pocket Wizards for several years. Pricey compared to competition ( that never existed when I started using PW). You can trust this product.

I have used Pocket Wizards for several years. This purchase was for an additional flash I had purchased. Pocket Wizards are very reliable and have never failed me. I would recommend them for their reliability and consistency.

Pocket Wizards are known for their stability, strength and ability to always come through when you need them. The Flex/Mini Pocket Wizards for Nikon are no exception. They just simply work right out of the box.

I have a number of Pocket Wizards for remote flash and camera triggering. Got the Flex TT5 to allow high speed sync withNikon SB units. Have used the original Quantum unit and Phottix units I picked up in Hong Kong, but like my PW's the best. They are quality units. Nikon wireless system is to darn expensive....

Great trigger, easy to use and set up. Works well with Nikon SB-700, SB-900 and SB-910 from my experience.

Pocket wizard is the best device for synchronizing your flash devices anywhere , anytime.

If you use the 580 EXII flash then it's best to look elsewhere. RF emitted from these flashes destroys the transmitter signal and causes sporadic at best, with system failure a majority of the time. The patch is a hard shield (AC-7) and that kind of works but my experience is its not reliable when shots count. So many missed shots because of this! I consider Pocket Wizard a premium product and for the money, this system should be rock solid. Unfortunately, it's not with the 580 EXII. If you use other flashes I bet it works great with the only downfall having to change the settings on your computer. If that works for you, then this is an excellent solution. With a significant investment in Pocket Wizard, I am strongly considering selling all of it.

I bought a used FlexTT5 from this site and I am extremely disappointed to find out it is a European Transceiver. I have a U.S. MiniTT1 Transmitter and they are on different frequencies. Thing is nowhere on the product page did it state that the FlexTT5 transceiver was a European model and used a different frequency, so now I'm out $150, stuck with a useless transceiver and I'm going to have to go shell out another $230 for the right model. At least I don't have an immediate need for it...

I use Canon Speedlites for my location shoots. This and the MiniTT1 gives me more flexibility in arranging lighting and not dependent on a cable to take advantage of ENGLAND mode.

I use this with my Nikon D7000 and SB900 and SB910 flashes. I am somewhat disappointed with the need to use a computer to change the channels as this creates a need to bring a computer with you on all assignments just in case you need to change the channel. Another dislike is the need to set the flash to standard dispersion which I typically don't use. Other than that the unit functions well. The software has a pretty good help screen, but can be somewhat confusing at first. Watching videos on usage definately helped.

I love that these units take double A batteries and not a special battery like the MiniTT1. The unit is reliable and easy to use. Makes my life easier being able to trigger without needing line of sight and opens the door to many more creative opportunities.

I like off camera flash but the Nikon i-TTL in the camera works some of the time. These simply work, every time. What more can you ask for? Dependable and versatile. And... they work with the older Pocket Wizards such as the Plus X.

Offers great control of your off camera flashes with up to 3 zones of lighting setups and +-3 stops of lighting adjustment when coupled with a ACS controller.

Getting the flash off the camera has never been so easy. Pretty much plug and play. I can fire three flash guns at once located in different areas. For me the setup for more complicated flash setting were a little confusing but the tech crew answers questions relatively fast.

Reliability you've come to expect from a PocketWizard. Got this along with the Mini TT1 to get the free AC3 controller via rebate. A week after sending the rebate in, the AC3 controller was at my house. Thanks PocketWizard!

Very dependable and consistent output. Recently used them off camera for lighting a very large group of faculty members. Set the TT5 units up early on manual and locked down the exposures for the group. Two hours of shooting and each exposure was consistently spot on. In post production, each exposure was as tight as the one before. I was very pleased as I have not had great results with other off camera lighting control equipment. For TTL exposures on the fly, after the first "calibration" shot, they perform flawlessly with recovery rates that keep up with my SB-910 units. More than enough channel choices and very easy to adjust using the AC3 on camera with a camera mounted Flex TT5. I did notice that using the TT5 unit on the D700, access to the ISO button was somewhat obstructed... not a problem at all with the D3s or D4 bodies. Putting them around corners, behind furniture or even covered with light fabric, they fire first time everytime. I couldn't be more pleased. Updating firmware was easy and straight forward... no problems with all Nikon equipment and CLS components. SB-800, SB-900 and SB-910 equally workable. Used on the D-300, D-700, D3s and D4 with predictably consistent performance. Very Happy with them, dropped in today to add another unit.

I only got them a week ago, used them twice, so far I really like the ability to be off camera. They have worked real well with my Nikon d3. The only grip I have is the hot shoe is plastic, I wish it were made of metal. They appear to be worth the money.

What I enjoy about using the Pocket Wizard Flex TT5 is the range it has for using off camera flash. It's perfect and very reliable. I use this combined with 32" umbrellas and the versatility is simply amazing. No need to worry about infared signals or cables or wires. The Wizards wireless features make the set up process very easy and quick. Your off camera capabilities and creativity are great with amazing results while firing off camera flash. Just set and shot! No more wondering if you're in range and the Hyper Synch Flash capabilities are awesome. Need to Flash at greater than 250/sec., then look no further than Pocket Wizard Flex TT5 system. You won't be disappointed for investing in Pocket Wizard Flex TT5!

Last year, I was selected as a beta tester for the new Nikon PocketWizard system, but I've been waiting until now to get my hands on the production models. Was it worth the wait?
With the holidays fast approaching Adorama asked some of the industry's hottest photographers what's on their holiday wishlist this year.
The answer is simple

I was at an off camera flash class when the instructor was telling everyone that there was no need to spend the $ for pocket Wizard when I just happen to have a photo of a hummingbird I shot still in the camera. The photo was taken with the flash behind a tree 2 feet from the bird and I was 10 ft or better away from the subject. No blur in the wings at all everything in the photo was sharp as a tack at 1/4000 sec. f/7.1. His question to the STUDENT (that would be me) Was how did you do that.....

Reliable off-camera flash radios

The PocketWizard FleXTT5 Transceiver Radio Slave is part of an ultra-versatile radio slave system and is dedicated specifically to the Nikon i-TTL flash control system. It simply slides directly into the camera's hot shoe and there are no special settings to make or modes to call up. Use the camera, on-camera flash, or flash commander controls for flash compensation, zone and ratio control.
It supports single or multiple dedicated flash units. The FleXTT5 is the ideal addition to any Nikon i-TTL flash system. Since this system works on digital radio technology, it can support E-TTL operation up to an amazing 800', even around corners, out-of-sight, or in bright sunlight.
