p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Pocketwizards or Yonguo for AB/Canon/Nikon


Which one would you recommend? I primarily use the canon speedlights and for those i have the ST-E3-RT.

I think i need to go more universal now that i have mix or lights:
1. 5 Canon speedlights
2. AB400 and 800
3. 3 Nikon SB910

Thank you!

I have the YN-622Cs and love them. They are great with speedlites and are cheaper.

I have two pairs of Yongnuo RF-603 C1 for my Canon 550D. I also have a Yongnuo flash sync cable. So I have one 603 hanging from my AB800, one under my 430EX, one on top of the camera and one in my hand as a trigger. Works like a charm. But of course you don't have to have a trigger on the AB's since they have the optical slave built-in. I also like the ability to use a pair of 603's as a wireless trigger when I'm out of the studio too.

will the 622c work with all 3 of the above or only with canon and AB? if its only canon and AB then won't the pocketwizard make more sense? i can use those across all 3 systems.

if you don't need more than a simple radio trigger the yongnuo rf-602 does a very nice job on the cheap.

Yes, I enjoy my RF-603's. One great feature is that you can use them as a flash trigger and shutter release simultaneously!

The YN-622 might be overkill if you plan to use then with studio strobes, but they have the added benefit of TTL and AF assist beam if you ever needed it.

The 622 will work using the hotshoe and has a sync cable port. Therefore, it will work with all 3
