Does it work with another brand's TTL transceivers?

Thank you!

[Josh Drumm]

When the ac3 is in manual, do you leave the flash in ttl mode?

[D800Lover]

I have a question. I set the AC3 to "A" which is TTL.

I did a shoot with two "snoots" which can be very tricky - as we are talking quite contrasty outcomes. But this is not really suitable for TTL as it will have problems 'measuring' the scene.

So I think the real advantage of AC3 may not be TTL at all.

So is the real advantage of AC3 is to set it to "M" and use it manually, as the light will be locked in, more manageable and consistent.

So AC3 and TTL - is that really such a big plus, and when?

Hey mark, I have gained a lot of tips watching your reviews. I would like to know if the PW Flex is compatible to the Nikon D600. Can I purchase a set now and start using these on the D600 in iTTL mode.

Thanks

It is double fun listen to you, afterwards a big practice outside or at a studio. Awesome Mark!

[David Panek]

Great Video.Question: If you put an SB800 on the mini TT1 and put it in master mode, can it control other flashes that are on a tt5 (same as the AC3) and other nikon flashes that are in remote mode (CLS) at the same?

Mark, I REALLY enjoy your tutorials. They are always very professional, yet easy to understand. If I ever want to know how to do something, the first place I stop is Adorama and your videos. Please keep them coming! Great work.

Excellent presentation Mark. Very much appreciated for the all the time, hardwork and detail you put into your work. You have a great heart.

With all these vids you are making I don't know how you ever to find time to do any of your regular photoshoots unless of course you are a zombie or managed to clone yourself. In which case you are a medical miracle. Just don't let the boys back at the research labs find out. They may want to dissect you to see what makes you tick.
