Product Description The New PocketWizard Plus II offers great flexibility and ease-of-use for photographers who demand a reliable wireless solution that they can just plug in, turn on and shoot. The PocketWizard Plus II is the first radio triggering system to offer Auto-Sensing Transceiver Technology, which automatically sends or receives, plus can trigger your camera and flash in auto-relay mode. So easy, so reliable.
awesomeNovember 23, 2008 these are the best. great range and easy to set up. gotta get the right cords though for your particular flash. or get a hotshoe pc sync adapter from[...] like i did. works on all flashes. cheap too.
Great Product... but overpricedOctober 6, 2008 Pocket Wizards are great and they are the industry standard, which means most pros use them. I own a single pocket wizard, because I only need it when I'm shooting at shared studios or on-location where lights are already provided, and my PW serves as a TX not RX. For my personal lighting setup, I prefer the less expensive and very reliable Cybersync RX and TX from Paul C. Buff (Alien Bees). They are 1/3 the cost of Pocket Wizards.
Long story short, every photographer should own at least one of these.
Cheap built qualityAugust 30, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I bought four of these units, after struggling with the calumet radio triggers (I need the additional range provide by the PWs). I would have given PW a five star rating except for the fact of the built quality. The hot shoe mount is very poorly design and the quality and feel of the material is like what another reviewer mentioned (like a cheap 10 dollar toy). I wish the thumbscrew wheel had a larger diameter and I struggle to really get a "secure mount to the camera hot shoe without breaking the unit. I have a buddy who is also a professional photographer and he has already broken the flimsy mount on one of his PW. I wish they would address this problem because there is no doubt they are making a killing, charging 200 bucks for a radio, when you can go out and buy a Sony AM/FM radio for 15 bucks. In their defense, never had problem firing the trigger. I am an architectural photographer and I typically fire the units 900 -1000 times a week.
Adorama Crummy Customer ServiceAugust 29, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
The Pocketwizard is probably overpriced, since it has been the only game in town, but it works as it should. That may change with the new Radio Poppers coming out. Anyway, I own 3 Pocketwizards. I love them & use them all the time.
My opinion of Adorama is less positive. They sent me an opened, obviously used PW, sold as new. I notified Adorama about it, and they offered to send a replacement. I wanted them to pay the return shipping on the used one. They never responded to that request. Very disappointed in Adorama. I go to B&H for my photo gear now.
