    I have a set of Elinchrom Quadra Hybrid Li-ion Action Heads (with flash duration up to 1/4000th sec) triggered by an Elinchrom Skyport Speed trigger. I am thinking of buying a S(006) body and a 70CS lens with the discount before the new rumoured CMOS S version TBC at Photokina.

    Thanks – with the T you do have to develop some steadying techniques. Fortunately, around the house or in town there's usually something to brace against. It makes me really respect the guys from the 30's to 70's with the non-stabilized film cameras.

    Following Capture Integration dealer it is possible to work on 1/1000s sync speed with the Pocketwizard III plus. Their ‘speed' mode does work to 1/1000s even if the specs state 1/500s max. The only other model compatible with 1/1000s in the PW range are the expensive MultiMax.

    What came as a bit of a surprise to me was the operation of the ‘T'. It's easy enough once you get used to it, but in my experience it still requires paying some attention to the camera, as I pay attention when shooting an ‘M' camera. It's not the same thing, and not the same type of user attention necessarily, but instead of being a “camera for…[Read more]

    Bob,

    Congrats on your new Move pack…you're going to love it. After shelling out the $$ to upgrade to CS lenses I've been frustrated by not being able to utilize their higher sync speed capabilities until now. I recently found out the hard way that 1/125th sync speed is sometimes insufficient to freeze motion when shooting handheld with a…[Read more]

    David,

    I am following this closely as my Move 1200 pack arrived this past week…upgrade from the
    Mobil LED set.

    Have not had a chance to use it yet but could not pass up the extra battery and the RFS2
    transmitter…not the Profoto AIR but better than the RFS original.

    Nope. The stock Lee holder is designed for resin filters, so there are three narrow tracks. Schneider modifies the filter holder so that two, thicker glass filters can be accommodated.

The S2 was accurate, but mine hunted and stalled alot. The Type 006 is much better – even with the 120S. Also, at ISO 100 the noise pitch is less. It's not…[Read more]

Turns out that the flash duration of the pack has quite a bit to do with whether you can sync at higher shutter speeds. With my new Broncolor Move 1200 pack the flash duration is so…[Read more]
