PocketWizard TTL Bonus Kit
ControlTL
PocketWizard's firmware platform accesses the camera's digital communications to enable a whole new level of remote flash functionality using our proven radio system. ControlTL enables remote TTL for Canon E-TTL II systems as well as manual power control. ControlTL firmware is configurable and upgradeable to ensure "future proof" continuous improvement.
Dedicated E-TTL II triggering
By snapping your FlexTT6 transmitter into the hot shoe of a Canon DSLR camera and mounting E-TTL II flash units on FlexTT6 or FlexTT5 transceivers, you get full autoflash control and the freedom and reliability of a PocketWizard radio. There are no special settings or modes to enter; use camera, flash or flash command controls for flash compensation, and zone and ratio controls.
Manual power control
Adjust the manual power settings of your remote Canon Speedlites directly from an AC3 ZoneController mounted on your FlexTT6 integrated camera. You can now independently control the power of up to three groups of lights (you can have as many lights as you want in each group) from full power to the lowest level simply by using the AC3's dials. Now you can have full control of the remote lights without leaving the shooting position
Select Zone
The FlexTT6 transceiver features an ABC zone select switch that allows use with the remote groups/zones found on the PocketWizard AC3 ZoneController or Canon Master Flashes. Zones allow you to control individual or groups of lights independently of other lights in different zones. These zones can also be used with a MuiltiMAX. This allows you to pair a single MultiMAX radio with the FlexTT6 transceivers on your remote controls and use many of the MultiMAX's advanced triggering features.
HyperSync
Our patent-pending HyperSync technology allows photographers to achieve faster X-sync speeds of up to 1/8000 second at full flash power. Now you can cut off ambient light and use wide-open apertures outdoors in bright sunlight. HyperSync automatically adjusts the timing of your flash trigger so it can achieve a faster speed than X-sync. With certain Canon camera and flash combinations, you can achieve sync down to 1/8000 second. Imagine what you can do with flash in bright sunshine with wide-open apertures and fast shutter speeds. Because HyperSync is a trigger feature, you can use any PocketWizard receiver, including the FlexTT5, PlusX, Plus III, Plus II, or MultiMAX. HyperSync works optimally with Studio Flash. For more information about XSync speeds with flash units, see Optimized HSS.
Please visit http://wiki.pocketwizard.com/hyperSync to configure HyperSync. While performance will vary depending on the camera and flash used, HyperSync can get the most out of any configuration.
HyperSync ™ automation
HyperSync Automation sets the HyperSync timing in two different places - the transmitter and the receiving ControlTL radio. The camera's FlexTT6 or FlexTT6 will automatically adjust to HyperSync to compensate for changes in shutter speed. Photographers can further fine-tune HyperSync through the PocketWizard utility. For more information on configuring HyperSync Automation, see the HyperSync section of the PocketWizard wiki
Optimized high-speed synchronization (HSS)
When HyperSync can't keep up, High Speed Sync takes over the speed for Speedlite flash shooting at 1/8000. ControlTL optimizes this amazing feature, providing more light (which equates to a longer working distance), faster recycle times, and more flashes per battery when shooting in Canon's HSS/FP flash mode. Use this feature to shoot in bright sunlight with the aperture open for amazing results.
Optimized curtain synchronization
The precise rear curtain sync function is activated automatically, no buttons need to be pressed. Set the shutter speed at which rear curtain sync is activated using the PocketWizard utility. Capture natural light trails with sharp shots at the end
- no “after trails!
Pre-Flash Boost
In some E-TTL situations, such as shooting in full sun, at long distances, or with diffusers or bounce flashes, the normal pre-flash is simply not enough for the camera. With Pre-Flash Boost, the pre-flash is two stops brighter. This roughly doubles the working distance of the E-TTL II and compensates for the light lost during defuse or bounce
Power Tracking
When working with PowerST4, PowerMC2 and AC9/FlexTT6 in conjunction with compatible manual flash units, you can change all your settings on the camera and the system will adapt to these changes. Change the flash exposure compensation to adjust the exposure or adjust the aperture or ISO and the system will compensate the flash for correct exposure
basic trigger mode
This means that the FlexTT6 can function as a basic shutter release on any camera.
