NOTES on overall system performance (visit PocketWizard.com for the latest updates):
1. HyperSync performance varies by camera. Although all cameras listed will have some HyperSync benet,
some will not achieve 1/400 or 1/500. See PocketWizard.com for a listing of specic camera capabilities
and HyperSync settings.
2. Commonly, a normal shutter release occurs after rst pressing the shutter button halfway to establish focus
and exposure. If the camera is in sleep mode and the shutter release is pressed all the way down without rst
establishing focus and exposure, the rst exposure may not be proper.
3. Canon ash models 430EX, 580EX, and 580EX II emit RF interference that can substantially reduce the
effective operating range of many radio slaves, including the FlexTT5. For these model ashes, please utilize
the mounting suggestions on Page 30 to optimize range. Using Canon’s off shoe cord OC-E3, greatly improves
range. Consider adding a ferrite clamp on the cable near the ash to further increase range. The Canon
430EX II performs dramatically better in this regard. It does not require special mounting consideration and
yields greater range.
NOTES for specic cameras:
1. On the 5D MarkII, a ash mounted in the hot-shoe of a MiniTT1/FlexTT5 on camera will currently not function.
This should be solved with further testing.
2. When remote triggering the 30D camera, it must be set to “Auto Power Off – Disable” otherwise
once camera sleeps, trigger will not work.
