Interesting. At least this is a single-outlet pack, which keeps the cost down. However, there\'s no modeling light at all, and while the head can do 1200 w/s, the pack only allows 400 w/s. Obviously, that keeps the cost down, but they might have been wise to bump it to 600 w/s at a slightly higher price. It also has a non-replacable flash tube. That\'s a big mistake IMO.
The other big questions with this unit are what modifiers can be used, and what radio remote system is available. (I\'m really sold on the Skyport / cyber-commander type of dingus.)
---------
Of course, the RX has it\'s own limitation, being 1100 w/s with only a -step range. There won\'t be much fine-tuning at low power. Can you swap-in a lower-power head with the RX pack?
Why can\'t digital systems have more output variability? What is the limitation on that? Who wouldn\'t want an 1100 w/s head if it could run at 50 w/s and be bumped 10 w/s per click? Obviously this can\'t be done, but why not?
