[#551008]

Evening all,
I'm looking at a more flexible approach to remote flash than using my Nikon CLS. Pocket Wizards seem to be the Shimano XTR of their ilk - any other recommendations?
Night night, probably read any replies tomorrow a.m.

Just treated mesel' to a set of poverty wizards (about £30 for two receivers and one hotshoe 'controller') off ebay - CLS is fine in overcast light but fails dismally in very bright sunshine or in dim light.

Fancied a set of Pocket Wizards but am waiting for the new ones to be available for Nikon (currently Canon only 🙁 ).

The only disadvantage is lack of TTL - everything has to be set manually, but works every time, and at a tenth of the PW price.

ive got a set of skyports which have most of the pocketwizards functions at half the price.
so far they've been great.

What did you buy, and who from?

I too have been wondering about doing this for a while, but couldn't justify the pocket wizard expense.
