JP Distribution is pleased to announce the 2 new additions to the PocketWizard range – the MiniTT1 and FlexTT5. Professional photographers worldwide have depended on PocketWizard wireless triggering systems for reliable performance, advanced features and the greatest operating range. For over two decades they have triggered their flash units and cameras wirelessly, capturing images that would have been impossible to make without PocketWizard. Since the first introduction of PocketWizard, professional photographers have demanded a TTL (Through-The-Lens) flash control PocketWizard system. Now, with the rapid development of digital technology, PocketWizard responds with a simple solution for off-camera TTL flash without limitations or complexity. PocketWizard has made it possible with “Slide-n-Shoot” simplicity by utilizing their new ControlTL™ system featuring the MiniTT1™ Transmitter and FlexTT5™ Transceiver (dedicated for Canon or Nikon camera/flash systems). These new E-TTLII and i-TTL (Canon/Nikon flash systems) enable PocketWizard wireless radios to provide effortless off-camera flash photography.
