| p.1 #1 · Phottix Odin triggers | |
Hi,
I would appreciate knowing the experiences of anyone here who has used Phottix Odin radio flash trigger transmitters and receivers with Canon cameras.They seem to have the same functions as the Pocket Wizard Flex/Mini system, and they include the ability to control the power of separate groups of lights, a function that's only possible in the PW world with an add-on AC3 module.
Of course the Odin system is designed to work with Canon speedlites in manual and ETTL modes. But there are times when I would like to work with a combnation of Canon flashes AND AC--powered strobes (Buff AB800s now; possibly Einsteins in the future). The PW system allows that - IF you buy a Mini or Flex transmitter, a separate AC3 module to go on top of it, a Flex receiver for each light, and an additional Buff-related flash module (I forget the model number) for each AC light. That gets very complex and quite expensive, but it seems to be the only way to control this sort of mixed-lightsource system. If the Odin system can be made to do this, too, it would seem to be ideal.
Thanks for any information you care to share.
