PocketWizard FlexTT5 Transceiver Radio Slave for Nikon i-TTL Flash System

Key Features

Compatible with FCC Compliant Items Only
Combination Transmitter/Receiver
High Speed Sync up to 1/8000th sec
On-Camera Hot Shoe

The PocketWizard FlexTT5 Transceiver Radio Slave is part of an ultra-versatile radio slave system, and is dedicated specifically to the Nikon i-TTL flash control system. It simply slides directly into the camera's hot shoe, and there are no special settings to make or modes to call up. Use the camera, on-camera flash, or flash commander controls for flash compensation, zone and ratio control. It supports single or multiple dedicated flash units.

The FlexTT5 is the ideal addition to any Nikon i-TTL flash system. Since this system works on digital radio technology, it can support i-TTL operation around corners, out-of-sight, or in bright sunlight.

The FlexTT5 is a "Transceiver", meaning it can be used either as a transmitter placed into the camera's hot shoe, in combination with another FlexTT5 unit on the flash end, or as a receiver, with a MiniTT1 transmitter-only unit placed on the camera's hot shoe.

2 Channel Settings + Learn Mode

Each setting can be programmed to support up to 20 ControlTL channels for TTL photography, or 32 standard channels for manual flash photography. The FlexTT5 Transceiver also has a three-zone selector switch, which integrates with Nikon zones and ratios. The Learn Mode allows the unit to detect the channel used by any other unit in the area.

HyperSync & High-Speed Sync Technology

Supports flash sync speeds of up to 1/500th sec. High-Speed Sync auto syncs flash system with the camera's shutter speed setting, up to 1/8000th.

Built-In Hot Shoe

Features a hot shoe on the top, so that you can still mount a flash unit directly onto the camera. This allows you to combine your remote flash with the on-camera flash, or use the on-camera flash for additional i-TTL control only.

Camera/Flash Ports

The FlexTT5 Transceiver has two plug-in ports for use with remote Nikon i-TTL cameras, or other non-TTL flash units. Camera remote triggering also requires use of a camera-specific "motor cord".

Remote Camera Triggering/Relay Mode

Can be used to trigger a camera remotely. Requires use of a camera-specific "motor cord". Auto Relay Mode allows you to trigger a remote camera in sync with a remote flash.

Low-Profile Design

The FlexTT5 lies flat to stay out of the way and uses a flip-up antenna for additional range when needed.

Configurable and Upgradeable

The FlexTT5 features a mini-USB port, which makes it upgradeable and "future-proof" for continuous improvements and compatibility upgrades. The included PocketWizard Utility software allows you to select custom settings through the USB connection, and to set it to use specific channels used by other Pocket Wizard units.

question

I am planning to get two FlexTT5's; one for my D7100 & other for my SB-910. Pls guide whether I need to purchase any other cable/cords apart from the two FlexTT5's.

Asked by: Anonymous

Nothing else would be needed; all items necessary to use your setup together would be included with the PocketWizard FlexTT5 Transceiver Remotes. The FlexTT5 would connect to the top of the hot shoe on the Nikon D7100 DSLR camera, and would connect to the hot shoe on the bottom of the Nikon SB-910 Speedlight Flash. The batteries needed to operate the FlexTT5 are included with the units.

How do you trigger the camera/flash remotely with the Flex TT5? can it be done wirelessly or is a cable required?

Asked by: Tyrone

You need two Flex TT5. One is one your camera and gives the trigger. Flash: you insert the flash on the socket of the second TT5. Camera Remote: you need a cable that connect the secong TT5 with the camera. Usually Nikon needs a 10-Pin cable that will trigger the camera, but this depends on your model.

How far away can this trigger a remote camera? Newer models can be at distances around 1000 feet.

Asked by: Vincent

The distance to trigger the camera using flex tt5 for both the trigger and as a receiver is up to 1200 feet. But with interference and environment it can be as low as 30 feet.

Is this compatible with a Nikon D850 and a Nikon Z7?

Asked by: Tyrone

The D850 is compatible with the radios but we do not yet have compatibility for the Z7. The Z7 is currently compatible with the FlexTT5s in Basic Trigger mode, for syncing up to X-sync in manual power.
