AC9 AlienBees Adapter & PowerST4 Receiver for Elinchrom Flashes

[1indiaindiaindia]

Can the ac9 controll the flash output on the whitelighting or only the modeling light ? It appears as if it only controll the flash compensation on the camera to increase or decrease light, please explain clearly.

Can the ac9 be mounted on the pocketwizard plus to trigger and calibrate the white lighting ? I do own a mini tt1.

I just bought two Elinchrom 600rx. I also just bought a Sekonic L758DR. The Sekonic makes my Skyport system useless for my strobes. If I have the Power ST4's on my Elinchrom's and a Mini TT1 on my Nikon, when I press the test/wireless button on the Sekonic L758DR, will the radio signal work to fire the Elinchrom's? Then will I be able to adjust their values from the camera? Will I be able to control the individual test fires from the ABCD menu on the Sekonic?

If I were to purchase a FlexTT5 and an AC9 to attach to my alienbees, would I be able to do exactly what youre doing if I were to trigger the flash with a pocket wizard plus ii? (using the plus ii as a transmitter and Flex TT5 as the receiver +AC9 to adjust the power of my alienbee)

@sugartamayo

Yes. you just can't control power output from the camera. I use to use the plus ii but when I switched over tt1 with ac3, I loved them.

For the powertracking. What if my camera a Nikon D3s don' have a flash compensation?

Very concise and informative, thanks for sharing.  What bracket are you using to mount your TT5 to the light stand?

Thanks again.
