Description

PocketWizard give us the most advanced Wireless Triggering System available for cameras and flash. If your needs go beyond simple triggering, the MultiMAX is definitely for you.

The latest version of the MultiMAX now features the following innovations. (Also available via the PocketWizard Utility for all USB-enabled MultiMAX radios.)

• Long Range Mode for remote camera triggering doubles the usable distance between two MultiMAX radios. This great feature is brilliant for photographers shooting in sports arenas, photographing wildlife and other applications such as aerial photography.

• Close Range Mode reduces the transmit power of the MultiMAX radio when it is in Transmit mode. This new mode is useful if you have a receiver very close to your transmitter such as studio shoots, macro photography or table top product shoots.

• The Noise Sniffer and Signal Strength Indicator are new tools for troubleshooting RF noise. The Noise Sniffer shows the ambient and peak radio noise for the channel and frequency displayed.

The Signal Strength Indicator (Receive Only) performs two functions:

• If a MultiMAX radio has NOT been triggered, it acts as a Noise Meter and indicates steady noise in the area.
• If your radio has been triggered, the Signal Strength Indicator shows the strength of the last trigger received.

This is useful to gain a quick view of the local noise level in the area you intend to shoot in so you can pick a channel with less interfering RF noise.

If the above tools indicate excessive RF interference on your Custom ID’s frequency, you now have the option to Move your Custom ID to any PocketWizard frequency for better triggering in crowded shooting environments. What is a Custom ID? It is a private digital code that no one can trigger but you. It is offered as a premium service by PocketWizard.

• Radio Relay (Repeater) Mode (Receive Only) allows you to add another MultiMAX radio to increase your range. It receives and transmits on the same channel. This new mode is valuable to extend the maximum range of a MultiMAX in any radio environment. If you are shooting in a RF noisy environment such as a sports arena and your current range is 200 feet, add another MultiMAX radio in Radio Relay Mode and gain another 200 feet. This mode is also helpful when shooting wildlife. If your current range is 800 feet because of trees and you would like to be a minimum of 2000 feet away from your subject, add two more MultiMAX radios to your system and increase your range.

MultiMAX Transceiver Advanced Communications Features:

• Thirty-two, 16-bit channels - Trigger individual or groups of lights and/or cameras simultaneously or individually. Critical to working in crowded venues or with multiple lighting set-ups.
• Selective Quad-Triggering - Activate or deactivate electronic flash units and/or cameras wirelessly in 4 separately controllable zones (ABCD) without leaving the camera position - audible and visual confirmation.
• Relay Mode - Acts as a transmitter and receiver, triggering both camera and flash from up to 1600 feet away. Upon receiving a signal from a remote transmitter, the on-camera receiver instantaneously switches to transmit mode and signals the remote flash units to fire in sync with the remote camera.
• True Trigger Confirmation - Verifies each successful triggering and indicates misfires via audio and/or visual confirmation signals. No separate transmitter/receiver system can do this.
• Product Compatibility - PocketWizard MultiMAX communicates with all PocketWizard-enabled photo gear including select Profoto and select Sekonic light meters.

MultiMAX Transceiver Time Control Features:

• Rear-curtain Sync - Capture ambient streaks of light at slow shutter speeds, even for cameras without this feature. Delay the sync time to fire the electronic flash unit near the end of the exposure, with precision of 1/10,000th of a second. Includes pre-programmed shutter speeds of 1 to 1/60th of a second, with additional setting configurable via the MultiMax's delay time adjustment screen.
• Intervalometer - Perform time-lapse imaging and photograph events as they unfold. Capture up to 10,000 exposures over a time period of approximately 18 hours using the integrated intervalometer.
• Multi-pop shooting - Adds depth-of-field to images or generates stroboscopic motion images. Allows your flash to be fired up to 10,000 times on the same exposure while waiting for a user programmed recycle time, from 1/100th to 10 minutes, between pops.
• Precision Delay Times - Custom set in transmit mode for remote units and/or port 2 on the MultiMAX. In receiver mode, precision delay offers delay sequencing or camera/flash synchronization.
• SpeedCycler - Perform sequential triggering for up to 4 cameras or 4 electronic flash units. Ideal for multi-angle camera shots, and reducing recycle time in fast paced photo shoots, by triggering the next flash in line, while the previous flash is charging. With 4 PocketWizard MultiMax transceivers connected to 4 cameras, the SpeedCycler mode can quadruple frames-per-second firing speed.
• Lag Time Equalizer Software - Measures reaction time between camera trigger signal to shutter firing. This lag time is used to synchronize single or multiple cameras and strobes to fire in unison, with measurable accuracy to 1/10,000th of a second.
• Ultra-fast Microprocessors - Achieve trigger-response times as short as 1/3000th of a second for reliable top-end sync speeds of 1/500th for focal plane shutters and 1/1000th for leaf shutters.
