Hi folks...
I've decided to venture into the land of off camera flash! Yes..it's a new world for me and scary to boot!
I had a one time need for off camera flash and picked up a cheap ( in Canada) Morris one channel set. As it turned out I didn't need it. arrrrg!
If I want ttl with my Canon gear am I limited to Pocket wizards for wireless flash? I'm not sure if there are other brands available on the market. Here in Toronto the Pocket Wizard PlusII units are selling for about 375.00 per unit plus tax which means about 427.50 per unit! I know I can buy them from a US company and get a better price, just he way the world works, but are there any other choices I have other than pocket wizards?
Right now this will be used for firing Canon flash units into umbrellas. I'm not quite up to studio lighting just yet. Most of my work is assignement based so theses flash heads are fine, but they need to be off camera.
All thoughts are welcomed and appreciated.
