Comments about Wein XL8-E Micro Ultra Slave:
These Wein slaves are great! I use them on shoots with all kinds of strobes, profoto, bron, etc Inside, outside and with lights outside windows they are perfect. When the pocket wizard fails these babies light it up.

Comments about Wein XL8-E Micro Ultra Slave:
I wrote the review above...and since then things have gone squaky ... it does not work consistently at all and is unpredictable ... my first review was done with very simple set-ups...when I began varying f-stops, speeds and camera to slave position (never more distant than 25') things became very unpredicatble...may be operator error, but as of now am disappointed.

Comments about Wein XL8-E Micro Ultra Slave:
I have D80 and an old Profoto Compac studio strobe that was firing on my preflashes. I got this Wein Slave and problem solved...now I can use it with my SB-900s. Note that SB900s can use iTTL but Wein Slave does not read it so my Profo flash strength must be set manually. Also I only use it in my garage studio so cannot attest to the distance...otherwise been working great for about 3 weeks.
