Pocket Wizard TT1 for Nikon’s iTTL
Submitted by Ron: EtherealPixels.com
I took delivery on one of these babies last week and shot with it a few days following. For those unfamiliar with it, when coupled with PW’s newer generation of transceivers, you get most of the iTTL functionality available with Nikon CLS or Canon’s iTTL via the radio wireless link, enabling high speed sync with certain studio monolights, such as the new Buff Einstein units. By the way, the Einsteins are awesome!!!!!
Here’s what needs to be done with the PW Mini on a newer Nikon:
Please check the camera menu under the pencil mode, go to “E-1” and select 250th (Auto FP). Also if you shoot RAW do not use 14 bit.
Next go to the PW Utility and connect the Mini. Click on Advanced Mode box at the bottom of the page. Under the channel tab De-select the box for “ControlTL Transmit Priority at X-Sync”
Best Regards

great read!!!
thank you so much Mary for this audio. this brought tears to my eyes. manliy because this is one of areas I struggle with..I realized that I think I do not deserve rest and recreation, and that I have to work for it (be it my business, family, kids, house work ).
Hi to all, the contents existing at this web site are genuinely remarkable for people knowledge,
well, keep up the nice work fellows.
Hello,
I am trying to get my tt1, 2 tt5s and ac3 controller to work.
Without the ac3, all is fine. When I put the ac3 on the tt1 that is mounted on my d800, the flashes fire (2 sb800s) but they seem to miss the spot when’re the shutter is actually open to take a shot. It’s like they are going off too early or late. I can’t make up the correct one. Without the AC3, the system works.
Please help…..

Hey Lior,
I hope you get that straightened out soon. I know what a pain it can be.
This was a user submission. I do not use these Pocket Wizard’s myself 🙁
