Containing my phottix odins ........so far they get a big :thumbs:

seem to do everything it says on the tin, didnt even need the manual to work out how to use them.

especially like the fact I can set each group of flashes power individually to manual or ttl (with additional EV +/- for each group) and the same with zoom (ttl or manual) all from the camera without having to visit the flash head

have yet to try range, just messed about with them indoors, but first impressions are very impressed.

...edited to add, bonus I wasnt expecting, the recievers have a tripod/light stand screwthread in the bottom as well as hotshoe mount

I bought them from the phottix online store. had to pay £17 import tax/vat on delivery. the phottix store was marginally cheaper than the ebay sellers who are also based in hongkong.

total cost is about 415 for the transmitter/controller and 3 recievers.

I believe you can also use odins to trigger their other recievers too ( a manual group obviously)

I know.... but I took the view that given the flexibility they offer and its worth it. Im an early adopter here so Im sure the rest of you will be boasting about getting them much cheaper in a few months :p

Had more of a play last night, and wrt off camera flash its made everything so simple, leave the heads in ttl and either let the ettl sort it all or over ride individual settings from the odin.. :thumbs:
 
Indeed, poverty wizards are catching up and fast. Years ago when I had Cactus2 they were extremely crap. Now rf602 are as good as my Skyports are. :)

Thinking of getting my self a set of Pixel King triggers. Should be ~£100 for a set of trigger and receiver.
