I have a Nikon D90. Do I have to buy a pocket wizard to remote trigger the flash? It says it comes with remote? Am I missing something?

No you do not have to buy a remote trigger. It comes with a trigger that attaches to your camera's hot shoe to activate the flash. But they can also be set to slave and have them trigger off of your on camera flash, whether it is the built in or a speed light.

I was confused to, but the remote does come with it. One part plugs into one of the lights and the other part slides on the bracket on top of your flash. When it is used these will trigger all three lights. I have had this for years and LOVE it!!! A great product.

A wireless will be necessary to operate the strobes. One wireless comes with the unit, and I suggest buying a 3 pack of the same make and model. They work great.

The kit comes with 2 triggers and 1 remote to set them off. If you'd like the option of triggering all 3 strobes, you should purchase a 3rd trigger. I bought an extra one, the only thing has been that sometimes there seems to be malfunction in communication and only two strobes will fire instead of all 3. I tried different channel combinations and it did the same. It doesn't happen every time but it's something to be aware off.

Yes, you'll need to invest in triggers...any kind works well based on your budget.(from cowboy's to PW's) the sensor mentioned is to communicate with each strobe but you'll need to communicate with the strobe initially...and that's where the radio triggers come in.

It does come with the kit, slide it on your hot shoe connection on the top of your camera and your set to go.

Our Nikon has a built-in flash. I did do my research at the manufacturers website and found all the information I needed to make an informed decision before buying and am very pleased with the product.

I have Yongnuo flash. I use this as an extra flash. It is ok. Quality is fair. Having said that stick with Pocket Wizard. Little expensive but reliable. I have four of these and never had a problem.

I don't use pocket wizard I use yongnuo RF-603NII triggers. and this speedlight is a single pin light that can only be used in mannual flash mode. when I use this speed light in this mode they work fine.

Yeah. I use mine with remote wireless triggers all the time. I really like the flash. It works great on the hot shoe in manual or ettl and the wireless remote has only missed a couple of times but more due to the trigger than the flash. It's a solid flash

Hello, This kit didn't include any way to trigger the camera remotely. It might be possible with some other accessory, but I am not familiar with one.

There are two ways: use the flash on your camera as the trigger or by using one of the included wireless remote trigger. The trigger attahces to the shoe horn on the camera. The nice piece, the triggers for the flashes are external, so if you have a set you can just plug in using the mini headphone type plug. The set has adapter for other sizes like 1/4" plug, etc.

One thing I would highly recommend if you are shooting with Canon is to use the YN-622C-TX (transmitter for the camera) and YN-622C (transceivers for each flash). Yongnuo has a version of this for Nikon, but I haven't ever used it or tested it. There are a lot of guides and comparisons on youtube for wireless flash triggers. One video I would check out is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ajwPYxZE8Bs with Tony Northrup. He explains features of several different ones. Again, hope this helps! :-)

Hello Riele, I do not see a remote pictured on this item. I just ordered this kit and do not expect to receive a remote. Perhaps you are confusing it with the flash?

I have tried several other remotes but have returned them, this unit is a high quality piece of equipment. I'm not sure what you want to know but the remote operates an external flash and camera at the same time if you want to operate the camera remote and a remote flash at the same time you will need a receiving unit of each remote flash you want to use Hope this helps and your girlfriend enjoys it merry Christmas

Should work as a flash trigger. (Unsure if it will work for you as a remote shutter release... Not sure if the D80 has the connector which mates to what is supplied in the kit.)

Not directly. You will need a pocket wizard transceiver. You can get a pocket wizard TT5 on each flash. You can then control the flash power remotely with the sekonic.

You are correct. You'll need to buy a pair of the flash triggers when you first start out. Think of them like walkie talkies. One goes on your camera and talks to the other one thats attached to your speedlite. If you have a third flash that wants to join the party then you'll need to buy a single flash trigger and set it to the same channel as your other pair and you'll be all set. Hope that helps :)

They sell one or as a set of two pocket wizards. You need two. One for the camera to send the signal and a second one to received and set off the flash.

No, sorry... their on a different frequency. You can use it if you manually fire the strobes... it has a built in delay mode if you want to do that... but it will only control Pocket Wizard triggers.
