I have a question someone here may know.
Using Nikon D700 and the new pocket wizard plus lll's in the studio
I have white lighting 1800's and 3200's will need or work out best way to get them all working together. I know the plus 3's are brand new ( mine are sitll in shipping) but if anyone is using the plus 2's it will give me a starting point.

PS. On location I can use the Nikon CLS system untill I need more light then back to the pocket wizard.

Any thoughts or ideas will help, Thanks.

First, you will need a mono cord from reciever to light. As with any radio system, you will need a minimum of one transmitter and one reciever, letting the remaining lights fire using the optical slave. However, a more fail-safe approach is to have a reciever on each light.

One more thing. The mono cord must be 1/8" to 1/4" and non attenuating. If you buy it from a photo supplier, you should get the right thing. If you get it from Radio Shack, you need to be careful.

THANK YOU! I will buy for good photo supplier, Old age and a few mistakes have tought me you most often get what you pay for and I would rather spend my money inside the trade with people I can trust.
