PocketWizard, creator of popular remote flash triggers such as the MiniTT1 and FlexTT5, have released an official note on their website stating that they’re currently über-busy working on compatibility with the new Canon 5D Mk III. Which means that they may not be answering their phones, replying to emails or answering questions on facebook for the next couple days. While this may be a bummer for those who are currently experiencing troubles with their PocketWizard gear, on the upside this means that very soon PocketWizard’s ControlTL firmware will be compatible with the Canon 5D Mk III, allowing users of the camera to pair it with their PocketWizard remote flash triggers (and not experiencing any troubles, hopefully.)
However, PocketWizard cannot give a specific date when the new firmware version will be finished. So while they keep on chimping and pimping and tinkering in their secret labs, we will just have to have a little more patience. After all, their goal is “to deliver firmware that you will have confidence in.”
