PocketWizard + Nikon – first look

Yesterday I was able to play with a prototype of the new PocketWizard FlexTT5 for Nikon. Yes, that’s right, Nikon. I was able to shoot with two strobes, an SB900 and SB800 while triggering from a Nikon D3. I shot in normal and High Speed Sync mode. Everything I tested worked without a hitch.

PocketWizard is planning on doing the first phase of extensive testing soon, this is known as Alpha testing. They’ll be working with the new PocketWizards on as many different types of Nikon cameras as possible in as many different shooting situations possible. This will enable them to lock down the features and eliminate the majority of glitches.

After the Alpha Testing is complete a private Beta test will be announced. From talks I had with the guys over at PocketWizard they will be inviting a wider range of photographers to test their gear to make sure everything works before the final release.

You can stay up to date on all the details by visiting PocketWizard.com. Of course I’ll post any news I have as soon as I’m able to do so.
