		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Dickie .. I like the SU-800.  It is small enough to fit in a pocket.  The main problem will be the need for line-of-sight (or close).  And also, bright daylight tends to diminish the effectiveness of these wireless controllers.

		<description>Neil, What do you think of the Nikon SU800 with regads to wireless flash operation ? I will be using it in conjunction with a D3 &amp; SB 900 ?</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;The design of the Radio Poppers actually shows a remarkable level of reverse engineering, getting to implement each camera maker&#039;s TTL flash system and making it work in a non-line-of-sight way.

The Radio Poppers work very well, and if you want a reliable wireless TTL set-up, I would recommend it.

Most times though, I find it is simpler just to use old school Pocket Wizards and use manual flash.

		<description>thanks neil......i so wish the PW&#039;s worked all the time, that would make the decision easy.....do you have confidence in radio poppers?? are there limitations with that system that PW&#039;s dont have(if they were consistent)?? thanks again</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Here is &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.pocketwizard.com/news_events/news/wallace_nikon_update/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;the latest update re the Nikon miniTT1 and FlexTT5 Pocketwizards&lt;/a&gt; ... and it still looks quite tentative. 

Mike ... I do think that if the TT1 and TT5 units worked properly, they would be the obvious choice.  But right now, if you want wireless TTL flash that works, then the choice is Radio Poppers.  The Pocketwizards are better integrated though with the camera and flash.  If only they worked properly.

Of course, for decades photographers created magical images with the old-school radio slaves that only trigger manual flash.  So that is still a very viable option of course.  Simplicity and reliability.

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Rafiayub ..  I&#039;m not sponsored by any company or distributor or manufacturer. Therefore any expense for new equipment, whether to use or test, and whether I buy it or rent it, comes out of my own pocket.

As such, it would be a prohibitively expensive hobby to continually test new equipment.  So I too am waiting to see what develops further with these units.

The delays with the Nikon units surely can&#039;t be good news.

		<description>Hi Neil,
I would like to go for this wireless setup. Can you please advice?
What about the present status? Did they fix the said problems? Now, I am using canon 5d Mk11.
I hope, you will write another article for the same, I mean, the present level of MiniTT1 and FlexTT5.
Thx</description>
