For those saying the the replacement battery on the mini is hard to replace just go to radio shack- they sell it. It will cost you the price of two whoppers- $8.

I might buy the Quantum turbo packs instead of the Elinchrom Quadra rangers now

"Its brainless" Well, for at least a grand.point.five ($500 for a 580EXII, $500 for the Quantum Turbo, and $500+ for the Pro Sunswatter) I dont know if I would want to show up with a $35 bent umbrella on the broken center section cannibalized from a gutted lightstand...

[mikewinburn]

wow... why is the video simply dreadful for a professional? If I were seeking a photographer, and I saw this video online, I would pass on his services... just an FYI. Great presentation of information, but less than amature video presentation... maybe your forte is still photography...okay...let someone do the video maybe?

[noeggi]

@mikewinburn i agree 100 %

[SuperRadDanny]

umm, ummm, ummmmmm.

[TALKCalgary]

We are commercial photographers based in Calgary, Alberta. In the studio we use Pocket Wizard all the time. Outside however or even in a large enclosed area such as an airport the MiniTT and Fkex5 simply don't work. The max ETTL range with our 780's is no more than than 10 - 20ft In fact, we get better line of sight coverage using IR. Also. The TT1 uses a battery that is very hard to replace. Even our camera store don't stock them!

@TALKCalgary I have read this exact same comment from you on other videos. Have you got something against PWs? I own them, and have neither had this experience nor even read of it apart from in your comments. Perhaps you have a defective model? Either way, stop spamming with this, it's not accurate for the vast majority of users.

[FloatingOnAZephyr]

@FloatingOnAZephyr And the battery is as easy to replace as any other battery. This is a nonsensical statement.

Yeah the one thing thee Strobists all mention is PUT the BROLLY in the RIGHT WAY round!

[jprodajko1]

Isn't the angle of the umbrella shaft supposed to be on an upward plane so that the flash is pointing to the center of the umbrella?

[EngPhotography]

It's okay. It's a shoot-through umbrella so the flash doesn't really have to be in the center.

[Omnis2]

Looks like he put his umbrella in backwards. The shaft should've been inserted on the other side.

Thanks David - This was great to see..Seeing how you can travel lite was an extra bonus!

[bhilldesign]

Great video - my equipment is on order. I attended David's first Light + Commerce workshop in April in Nashville and loved every minute of it. He covered a huge amount of technical, artistic and business know-how in what seemed like MUCH longer than a day. Sign up!

[ricklohre]

David, Great working with you and much luck at the upcoming workshops!

For those of you who are in the next cities or nearbydefinitely try to attend the workshop, there is a lot of valuable info that David passes along.

Great info on the new PW FLEX TTs and their application.

[visualjah]

Top notch David!

Thanks for the peak at the workshop too.

(Adding new Pocketwizard Flex TT5 to my list of equipment NEEDs...)
