Thanks for the videos! I think i'll go for the Skyports instead of the pocket wizards. They function pretty much alike in my usage (strobes) and the Skyports i've heard are as reliable as the PW's for a significant prive drop :)
Thank you! I have Nikon SB-800s and SB-600s, and a OCTA. I'm tryiing to get better at using both of them, although the remote Nikons are activated by flash signals and i know the RX-600 has a feature where it can be activated by a flash too, but I think the preflashes on the Nikon trigger the RX-600 before teh curtain opens. that's something I'm still experimenting with... Nonetheless, you're videos are very helpful - thank you!!!
Yeah, the skyport system is cheap indeed.. the problem is, that it feels cheap too. Elinchrom need to update the Skyport Speed Transmiter, with a more user friendly UI, like the Canon ST-E3-RT or the Profoto Air Remote TTL. I wouldnt mind to pay a little more for quality and durability. Also AA bateries are more easy to replace, and maybe that little IONLIT battery is the reason that the Speed Transmitter isnt 100% reliable. (Using the Elinchrom Ranger Quadra RX) I hope to see this upgrade in the future.... The USB Skyport its cool.
Great video...
thanks for all your efforts.
