Taking the ultimate step forward, PocketWizard is now
offering the first built-in digital radio Transceiver
in a digital SLR camera to trigger flash units and/or
cameras wirelessly. Imagine the possibilities when you
eliminate the sync cords!
The newest generation PocketWizard takes the shape
of a wafer-thin electronic computer circuit board, that
interfaces with existing technology found in the Nikon®
D-Series Digital SLR cameras. This built-in PocketWizard
Transceiver offers the same advantages as the external
units without the need for pre-triggered motor drive
cables, batteries or PC cords and it leaves the camera's
hot shoe available for other accessories such as an
on-camera flash.
Installation of the PocketWizard inside the Nikon D-Series
cameras is available from Mamiya America Corporation
in the U.S. as an aftermarket modification to current
owners of Nikon's D1, D1H and D1X series of digital
SLR cameras. The PocketWizard technology inside modification
is fully compatible with all current and previously
released PocketWizard Digital Radio Triggering Systems.
Offering 32 channels plus "Multi-Zone Triggering",
this modification also features auto-channel detection.
Setting the radio channel on the Nikon® D-Series
camera is as easy as holding the camera's flash key
down and turning the jog wheel, until the flash or camera
fires. Since the PocketWizard chip inside is a Transceiver,
it can send or receive digital radio signals independently
or simultaneously. That means you can trigger your camera
remotely and your camera will trigger your flash units
remotely, all at the same time, wirelessly up to 1600
feet away.
The PocketWizard inside also offers features such as
Pre-Triggering release circuitry that keeps the camera
from going into sleep mode, SpeedCycler mode enabling
rapid switching from one flash unit (or Zone) to another.
Relay Trigger sequencing, offering the photographer
the ability to trigger a camera wirelessly and the camera,
in turn, triggers electronic flash units wirelessly.
The PocketWizard inside accepts the trigger signals
from other PocketWizard radios, (such as the PocketWizard
Classic, Plus, MAX, MultiMAX or also a Sekonic radio-
ready exposure meter). An external antenna that screws
into the Nikon's PC socket is the only indication that
PocketWizard technology is inside. Once the antenna
is removed the PC socket automatically switches back
to a standard PC terminal. With a triggering range estimated
at 1000 feet or more and total compatibility with all
PocketWizard Inside or PocketWizard Ready professional
photographic equipment, the Nikon's D-Series cameras
with PocketWizard technology inside is the perfect addition
to the "Digital Wireless Freedom" system.
Future photographers won't know the limits of a wired
world, why should you?
