PocketWizard MiniTT1 - Transmissor de Rádio Escravo para os Sistemas Canon E-TTL II e E-TTL II
O Transmissor de Rádio Escravo PocketWizard MiniTT1 utiliza a nova plataforma de firmware ControlTL da PocketWizard , é parte de um sistema de rádio escravo super versátil e é dedicado especificamente para o sistema de controle de flash Canon E-TTL II. Ele desliza diretamente na sapata da câmera. Não precisa de ajustes ou modos especiais. Use a câmera, flash na câmera ou controles de flash para compensação de flash, zona e taxa. Ele suporta uma ou várias unidades de flash dedicadas. O MiniTT1 é a inclusão ideal a qualquer sistema de flash Canon E-TTL II. Ele funciona combinado com o Transceiver FlexTT5 e como o sistema funciona com tecnologia de rádio digital, ele suporta E-TTL em esquinas, sem contato visual ou sob luz forte do sol.
- Configurações de 2 Canais + Modo Learn
- Cada configuração pode ser programada para transmitir até 20 canais ControlTL para fotografia TTL ou 32 canais padrão para fotografia com flash manual. O Transceiver FlexTT5 também possui um seletor de 3 zonas, o MiniTT1, programado para os canais PocketWizard 1 e 2.
- Tecnologia de Sincronismo de Alta Velocidade e HyperSync
- Permite velocidades X-sync de até 1/8000 com flash em potência máxima. O sincronismo de alta velocidade fornece auto flash com velocidade de obturador da câmera de até 1/8000. Programação única otimiza HSS para melhor operação e mais fotos por conjunto de baterias.
- Tecnologia de Sincronismo de Alta Velocidade e HyperSync
- Suporta velocidades de sincronismo de flash de até 1/500 de segundo. O Sincronismo de Alta Velocidade sincroniza automaticamente o sistema de flash com o ajuste de velocidade do obturador da câmera até 1/8000.
- Sapata Integrada, Use com Qualquer Flash
- Possui uma sapata na parte superior para que você possa montar uma unidade de flash diretamente na câmera. Isso permite combinar seu flash remoto com o flash na câmera, ou usar o flash na câmera apenas para controle de E-TTL II extra. Os contatos da sapata detectam automaticamente E-TTL dedicado ou flash simples de sapata.
- Compatível com Modelos Anteriores e Disparo Básico
- Opera nos mesmos canais que todos os outros PocketWizards para trabalhar com qualquer unidade que você já possua. O modo de Disparo Básico permite uso padrão com praticamente todas as câmeras de sapata.
- Design Compacto
- O MiniTT1 fica nivelado para deixar o caminho livre e usa uma antena interna.
- Configurável e Atualizável
- O MiniTT1 possui mini porta USB, que faz dele atualizável e "à prova de futuro" para melhorias contínuas e atualizações de compatibilidade. O software PocketWizard Utility, disponível em , permite ajustar funções personalizadas, ajustar o tempo HyperSync e configurar canais.

First, let me start off by saying that I do really like this system but it does have it's limitations.Before purchasing (3) FlexTT5, (1) MiniTT1 and (1) AC3 Zone Controller, I did lots of research on wireless TTL triggers and of course like many of us, the main comparison was between PocketWizard and RadioPoppers. I literally spent a good month of weighing the pros and cons of both system and concluded that BOTH were really good systems. Ideally, if you could just merge the two you would have the ultimate solution. Of course, this is merely a fantasy. So after a weighing the pros and cons I went with the PocketWizards. As we all know (or should know) the Flex and Mini system have an issue with the radio noise of a few popular Canon Speedlites (580EX, 580EX II and 480EX). Of course I only own 580EX II's so I was at a disadvantage from the start. However, the interference issues are only at distances over 30 feet. Since I shoot mostly portrait and product stuff, 30ft is a fair distance... especially since I was already using a 32ft ETTL cord. Well, I put the system to the test and sure enough, 30ft was maximum distance I could get. With the system setup in my house, once I exceeded 30 feet the system was very erratic and misfired a lot. BUT... then I installed the AC5 soft shield (which is included with the FlexTT5). Well, my house was too small to fully test the system as I easily exceeded 30ft, so I moved my test outside to a wide open field in a local park. Low and behold, I easily exceeded the 30ft limitation and was able to trigger the system as far away as 200ft! Now I do understand that the RadioPoppers are good for about 1500ft, which is amazing, but who shoots that far? that's 5 football fields! I'll never need that range. You may... but I certainly do not. Now, throw in the AC3 Zone Controller and the system becomes VERY versatile. The ability to control 3 zones in ANY combination of ETTL or Manual... right from the top of the camera is a fair trade off for the distance thing. Sure you can do sort of the same thing with RadioPopper PX system, via a camera mounted master flash and the Canon A:B:C method. But, it's not nearly as versatile as the AC3 and not as easy to access as the AC3. Another great advantage over the RadioPopper system is that you can easily update the firmware and software via the USB port on each unit. Hopefully the will develop some update that will rectify the interference issue.THE BOTTOM LINE: The PocketWizard Flex and Mini system is quite versatile, but does lack a bit on the reliability end. Having to add the AC5 soft shield can be a bit annoying by limiting your access to the flash controls, but you should not need access if you are using the AC3 Zone Controller. The system can be affected by ambient radio noise and occasionally misfires. For the money, this system should work flawlessly. The truth is... it works ALMOST flawlessly. I can live with it's limitations, because the trade-off is flexibility.The best article that I've read about the Flex system and it's distance limitations is here: http://www.robgalbraith.com/bins/multi_page.asp?cid=7-10050-10598

I really, really wanted to like the new Pocket Wizards, because I have used the PW PlusII for several years, and I thought I researched these new units extensively enough. I chose these units because of their lower profile design when trying to trigger off camera flashes while also using an on camera flash (instead of strapping a PW on top of my on camera flash). The appearance of the design is great, especially the Mini. I tested them ahead of a shoot, but testing doesn't completely prepair you for all the circumstances of real under pressure use. I used a pair of Mini/Flex units at a wedding with both eTTL off camera flashes and other AC powered units (which of course is one of this products' main target markets i.e. wedding/candid events). I ultimated chose to return both the Mini and the Flex, and B&H gave me a very prompt refund.
Here are some my biggest frustrations with the Mini & the Flex: 1. Recalibration way too often --When the camera or flash goes to sleep, you have do another calibration shot (which means you need to calibrate every few minutes at a wedding, and frequently miss important shots). So even if you just use the mini or Flex as a triggering device (with flash attached) for use with conventional PocketWizards, your on camera flash won't fire frequently, because the unit needs to so frequently recalibrate. 2. Off camera eTTL flashes often won't fire at all, or won't fire accurately --- The frequency that these units use is heavily effected by the same frequency of the RF "noise" produced by the popular Canon flashes (yes I've read the new version of the 430 is less prone to this RF). Because of this the recieving flash with FlexTT5 attached is too unpredictable if hand-held and often won't fire, or will fire at full power, because the unit needs to be positioned "just so", and often needs to be rediculously close to work at all.
Unfortuanately the engineers blew it on this product. Fixes/Designs they "should have done": 1. They should have allowed the unit to calibrate only once and not needing to have the calibration continually refreshed (maaaaaybe this will be fixed in a firmware update). 2. They could/should have designed the unit to send out 2 signals simultanously-- one to trigger legacy PocketWizard units, and one on a more reliable frequency for the Canon eTTL units (I don't see this happening without them bring out a newer version)
These units are almost contenders, but because of these and other major design flaws, I'm guessing the vast majority of them will be returned.

Comments about PocketWizard MiniTT1 Radio Slave Transmitter for Canon E-TTL & E-TTL II Systems:
I am very pleased by this little transmitter and am tempted to buy a 2nd to put on my 2nd body so that I can use my off camera lighting for either body I am using during a wedding or so that my 2nd shooter can use the off camera lighting as well. It works well in combination with the pocketwizard flex 5 I bought with it at the same time. Be aware thought that if you use this with a bracket and sync cord you must have the mini tt1 attached directly to the bracket's flash. If you have the sync cord between the mini tt1 and the flash it will not function properly, for example the AF assist beam will not work. I would have given it 5 stars if it was able to do that or at least if they had mentioned that in the manual so that I wasn't left fumbling trying to figure out what was going wrong.
It definitely works better than when I was just using the 580exII's infrared triggering alone with the 430EXII. Not having to be in the other flash's direct line of site is really nice. Having the ability to do off camera flash reliably really has improved my over all work.

Comments about PocketWizard MiniTT1 Radio Slave Transmitter for Canon E-TTL & E-TTL II Systems:
I intended this to trigger my pocket wizard Multi max units. I mounted my Quantum Trio on it and it did not give TTL information MOST of the time.
I returned this item because the battery didn't even last one whole job. There are no rechargeable options and that type of battery is not as easy to get as standard AA or AAA.
The larger FlexTT5 is better because it takes AA's. It still has intermittent TTL function but it is more reliable in other modes.

Comments about PocketWizard MiniTT1 Radio Slave Transmitter for Canon E-TTL & E-TTL II Systems:
I've used my pocketwizard plus for the past 4 years and they still work great. So when the new mini tt1 came out with backward compatibility, it surely made my upgrade easy. Aside from pocketwizard's reliability, the hypersync feature allowed me to suppress ambient light by more than 2/3rd of a stop, which allowed me to use lower watt/sec strobes (ie. elinchrom quadra) in the bright outdoors.

Comments about PocketWizard MiniTT1 Radio Slave Transmitter for Canon E-TTL & E-TTL II Systems:
If you are considering buying this radio slave, you already know what it does. What you need to know is that it does it very well, the range and penetration of the radio was more than I expected, as of yet no problems. The ETTL compatibility is amazing, ETTL accuracy and ease with the freedom to move your flash off camera.
I would suggest buying this product instead of cutting corners, if you want a radio this is the one to buy.
