p.1 #1 · differences between Phottix units


I've been reading threads about radio triggers and I think I'm going to sell my Radio Poppers and go with Phottix. The RP's work, but they're just a PITA to set up. (to me anyway)
What I don't seem to find any info on is what is the difference between the Stratto and the Odin, and I've even seen other models named. I went to the website, but to me it's poorly designed and hard to find what the differences between models are. In fact, all I saw was the Stratto II.
Can someone point me to a good source for more info and preferably even pros and cons of the different units? Thanks

Been doing some more searching and found more. Do I have this right? The odin looks like basically a substitute for an SU 800 or ST-E2. So if I have the SU800 already, I don't need the Odin. It looks like I just need the Strattos multi II. Is this right?

I agree, there website is really bad.

Odin is TTL while the Strattos multi II is only manual.

The SU800 is IR which need a line of sight for it to work and the range isn't as great as the Odin.

Both unit have the ability to do grouping, the Odin can do up to 3 group wihle the Strattos can do 4 group.

Since you said you have the SU800 I am guessing you shoot Nikon. As far as I know Phottix don't have the Odin on the Nikon yet but should be out soon.

I have the Stratto II, maybe we can do a trade, I'll shoot you a PM.
