You can use these with just about any flash, but you may need to use an adapter. You can use either of these adapters to allow use of your Metz 50 AF-1 with the PocketWizards: (1) http://flashzebra.com/products/0126/index.shtml or (2) http://flashzebra.com/products/0115/index.shtml

If your flash does not have a PC port for the sync cord, you cannot use the PocketWizard Plus X to trigger it.

You can use it but only in Manual Mode! TTL Will not work, any kind of flash, canon, nikon or the new hot shoe sony's, but i recomend to you the Yongnuo

I don't know. I would think it should. I had different problems with a different flash. I enocurage you to make sure the flash and cord are pushed all the way in and firmly seated on the connectors. They only have to be off a very little bit to mess up the connections. You can also make sure all the connecting surfaces are completely clean. Otherwise, you may have a bad cord.

C=canon; N=Nikon. Use the wrong one and it'll technically flash, but it won't expose properly. Basically it has to match to be able to talk to your camera.

I have used Metz 50 AF-1 (for Nikon) flashes with the Odin and they work well

Yes, the Metz MZ 44316S 44 AF-1 ADI works whith the Sony A99. But you need the adapter. Read the Customer Questions & Answers by Amazon.com for the flash, please.

I believe you can use it. You will need a 52C adapter, which is available, to mount the flash to the lens.

As stated in previous answers, the connector is wired directly to the battery pack. It's the same type of cable as the wired phone handsets but better; I don't find myself untangling this cable like I do my office cable. The connector is not an interchangeable nib, but a nib for Canon's 580 and 600 flash. To get this pack to work with other flashes you would have to either 1) get an adapter (good luck) or 2) chop off the tip and wire your adapter of choice to the cable (not recommended since it can fry your flash unit if you mess up the soldering).

You can sync it with a cable, with a remote trigger or using the slave function meaning the yongnuo will flash if it detects another flash firing, for example your built in flash. Hope this helps

You are correct. Mount one on the camera, and connect one to the flash as long as has a compatible input.

Yes, you need to get a TTL cable if you want automatic flash metering. It will also work off camera manually with any wireless flash trigger or with line of sight using the built in optical slave mode.

I have no experience with the particular flash you mention. However, I have no reason to believe it won't work. It is a simple device - it gives you a PC connection on the Canon cameras - in my case, a 6D. In times past, the PC connection came in the camera body. For some reason, they are no longer including the built-in PC connection. So this is the answer, and it works. And you know what? If it doesn't work with your flash, then send it back. I don't believe that you will ever have to return it.

I was unable to get the provided cord to work with my 430EX and Canon 5D mkII. The flash would fire, but no TTL functions. The camera did not recognize the flash when it was on the cord. I ended up going with a "Vello TTL-Off-Camera Flash Cord" and bought the bracket separately for roughly the same price.

Yes this will. Since this has a optical sync you can trigger this flash with your camera flash. If you do not want to use your camera flash, you can plug a sync cable to trigger. Happy shooting!!

Yes, works through the hotshoe connection. It works perfectly with my Canon 430/580's, 560'sand Nikon SB's, Neewer and Yougono via hotshoe, and my Studio strobes when connected via sync cable. You can fire different strobes set to different channels, or all of them on one channel. but no TTL data. - lyarks.com

You COULD, but you'll need to have or purchase a remote trigger for the flash. There is no built-in remote trigger option on the flash itself.

Yes you can. I have a 60D as well and use both flashes and a slave flash to.
