The New PocketWizard MiniTT1 is now availiable for Nikon DSLR camera and is the smallest PocketWizard radio ever, the MiniTT1® Transmitter is part of a new generation of PocketWizard radios providing i-TTL and power control capabilities with Nikon Speedlights and select studio lights. Your creativity also extends far beyond X-Sync speeds with HyperSync and FP Sync capabilities.
The PocketWizard MiniTT1 locks onto the cameraÂ’s hot shoe, supporting an on-camera flash with its own hot shoe while working with remote PocketWizard units. Remotes can be one or more PocketWizard FlexTT5 Transceivers connected to Nikon CLS / i-TTL flashes or any PocketWizard Receiver for triggering flash or remote cameras.
The new PocketWizard MiniTT1 Transmitter is easy to use; just slide in place and begin to shoot. The new PocketWizard ControlTL System interprets the complex CLS / i-TTL data being sent through the cameraÂ’s hot shoe and digitally transmits it in a reliable radio signal. Change the exposure compensation dial on the camera, and those commands pass seamlessly through the system to your remote flash. Adjust your aperture or ISO and the system automatically corrects for those changes.
Add the PocketWizard AC3 ZoneController to easily adjust up to three zones of light independently, in both i-TTL or manual. PocketWizard ControlTL radio communication allows you to shoot farther, faster, around corners, through walls even at high noon in bright daylight. Now you can deploy a wireless i-TTL flash system wherever you want, without infrared limitations, in seconds
Take advantage of PocketWizardÂ’s HyperSync Technology that allows 1/500th of a second camera sync or more with many camera/strobe set-ups. HyperSync allows you to advance the timing of your flash trigger so that faster than X-sync speeds can be achieved.
Need more speed? Push your ControlTL system beyond 1/500th and go into High Speed Sync / FP mode automatically. With HSS Sync engaged in the camera menu, select any shutter speed you want with your Nikon i-TTL flashes, all the way up to 1/8000th of a second. With radio wireless, the possiblities of FP Sync become a lot more exciting.
Use the MiniTT1 with the PowerST4 Receiver, PowerMC2 Receiver, or AC9 AlienBees Adapter on a FlexTT5 and get remote power control with your Elinchrom RX or any Paul C. Buff flash.
Use the MiniTT1 for standard triggering with any PocketWizard Receiver including the FlexTT5, PlusII or MultiMAX. Yes, you can intermix i-TTL flash with any manual flash extending your lighting possiblities.
The MiniTT1 works on the powerful ControlTL platform and can be configured via the PocketWizard Utility. The PocketWizard Utility download is provided to support the MiniTT1 via a USB port. The Utility allows you to configure your channel settings, dial in your HyperSync timing, adjust your sleep-mode timers and update your product to the latest firmware.
The PocketWizard MiniTT1 Transmitter is the start of a new era in wireless trigger control.
Slide-n-Shoot Simplicity - PocketWizard Goes Beyond TTL
Professional photographers have depended on PocketWizard radios for reliable triggering of their manual flashes for years. But, with the onslaught of digital technology, photographers have been seeking a simpler solution for off-camera TTL flash. The available products and solutions have been good, but not without limitations or complexity. PocketWizard has made it possible with the Slide-n-Shoot simplicity of the new ControlTL system (Control the Light), featuring the MiniTT1® Transmitter and FlexTT5® Transceiver for Canonand Nikon. These new E-TTL II and CLS / i-TTL capable radios make taking off-camera flash photos as effortless as slide-in, turn-on and shoot.
Now you can get perfect off-camera flash photos in any environment.

These products are the beginning of a new era in PocketWizard technology featuring the ControlTL firmware. ControlTL taps into the cameraÂ’s digital communications to enable an entirely new level of remote flash capability through our proven radio system, with remote TTL for Canon E-TTL II and Nikon CLS / i-TTL systems.
Sure, remote wireless flash is available today, but with major system limitations or complexities. Now you can simply slide-in, turn-on and shoot with the new PocketWizard MiniTT1 and FlexTT5 regardless of flash positioning or daylight. Changes in ISO, aperture and shutter speed are seamlessly passed along for reliable, flawless flash. You can even use your camera controls to make changes in flash output. Need ratios? You can do that too.
Upgradeable and Configurable:
ControlTL was designed to be user configurable and upgradeable making these new units virtually “future-proof.” Simply make a Mac or PC connection through the USB port and fire up the included PocketWizard Utility software to select other channels, adjust sleep mode timeout, adjust flash trigger timing for HyperSync™ mode, and more.
Behind the scenes, we are hard at work on new features for both TTL and studio flash that will help you get the most out of your equipment.
First, by using radio instead of infrared you can trigger your remote flashes outdoors, in bright sun and at distances far greater then infrared will allow. Now you can place your flashes close to your subject and step back to use a longer lens. When any shutter speed can be used, you can open up your aperture all the way to soften your background or just use a high shutter speed to knock down the level of ambient light. This is a great way to get fantastic photos in the middle of the day in harsh sun.
But HSS is a battery hog as it needs a lot of power to pulse the light. Through extensive experimentation, we found a way to reduce the total power used while giving you more power, and thus more light, when you need it. This means more light (which equals greater working distance), faster recycling times and more flashes per battery set when shooting in Canon's HSS/FP Flash mode.
Because the new MiniTT1 Transmitter and FlexTT5 Transceiver communicate through-the-shoe with the camera system, they can control the HSS burst duration. By precisely matching flash duration to the shutter speed, large gains in efficiency are found, as much as 70% in many cases, for both remote and on-camera flashes.
This gain in efficiency is immediately translated into shorter recycle times (allowing faster HSS shooting), and more shots per battery set. Additionally, the efficiency gain means there is more power available when needed, up to two stops more, thus allowing photographers to place flashes farther away from their subjects or smaller apertures when using HSS.
When shooting in E-TTL, the camera determines how much light is needed for a given shooting situation and makes a request to the flash for that amount of light. If the flashes are within a proper working range, they fire the needed amount of light and all is good. However, if the lights are too far from the subject, they will fire but the shot will be underexposed. Now with optimized HSS, the flashes have more power available and the maximum brightness is greater allowing the working distance between the flash and the subject to be extended before you reach a point where the shot will be underexposed. You can now simply use a smaller aperture if desired.
HyperSync™.
ControlTL® enables some previously impossible camera capabilities including HyperSync™. HyperSync allows photographers to achieve faster X-sync speeds, all the way up to 1/8000 second*, with full power flash. Now you can cut the ambient light and use wide-open apertures, outdoors in bright sunlight. That extra speed can also freeze action, whether shooting models or athletes in motion.
HyperSync works with both TTL speedlights and full size studio flash. All you need is a MiniTT1 or FlexTT5 on camera that has been tuned to your specific camera via the PocketWizard Utility. While performance varies by the camera and flash equipment being used, HyperSync will get the maximum possible out of any set-up.
