The Pocket Wizard AC3 ZoneController allows you to control your flash set up directly from your camera's position. Simply add it to your on-camera MiniTT1Transmitter or FlexTT5 Transceiver and you instantly have three zones of flash control whether working in E-TTL II or Manual model. Put your flashes wherever you want without worrying about having to access them during a shoot. With the AC3 ZoneController, you are in total control of your flash. Three clearly labeled dials allow you to increase or decrease power to three zones of flash in 1/3-stop increments with a range of up to six stops. Three switches allow you to change zones between Manual, Auto (PowerTracking/E-TTL II) or OFF. Best of all, the design is simple with an intuitive interface. A firmware upgrade is now available for TT1 and TT5 via the Pocket Wizard website.  More

        Comments about PocketWizard AC3 Zone Controller - Nikon:

        This 'triple' product for Nikon was recommended to me for its simplicity, reliability and effectiveness over Nikon's own off-camera flash system. Expensive but worth every penny as i finally had one of those lightbulb moments with how to get the most out of off-camera flash/lighting.

        Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

            Comments about PocketWizard AC3 Zone Controller - Nikon:

            Brilliant, adds wireless manual power level control for three groups. Personally though, I use the manual power more than TTL with compensation, so the -3 to +3 scale is tricky to immediately translate into manual power levels.

            Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
