I have the Canon 600EX-RT Speedlite triggered by the Canon ST-E3-RT Speedlite transmitter, will the 478DR be able to trigger this set up?

No it will not. It's only designed to work with 2.4 GHz units not the Canon units.

It's only work with Pokect Wizard trigger, not other brand. The incredible of this, if you use Pocket Wizard trigger you can choose the group / channel to trigger with the Sekonic Lightmaster L-478 DR. It's the best in the market.

Works fine with all new Canons. Doesn't support the new radio system like the 600EX-RT, but can still be used as slave IR. Will also work fine on hot shoe of any new Canon (for ETTL and/or AF assist). I've had one 580EX (I) for years, and while it doesn't support some new features, is still a good primary or secondary flash (with IR...would have to get a newer Canon flash for RT slave).

No! You wont be able and whatch out! my transmitter just got broken by holding a Canon Speedlite 430 ex. You'll have hard time getting replaced or repair.

After a tough learning curve I have learned this does 'work' with the T2i, depending on your definition of work. This model is manual only, you have to adjust the settings manually, and the camera does not recognize it in the flash control settings. The yonguno YN568EX II has the E-TTL features. I recommend the book 'Speedliter's Handbook' by Syl Arena to explain the complicated world of canon speedlites, it's a plain english guide and is answering all my questions about canon speedlites. Note: it is canon specific.

No, I have not been able to make my D3200 work with SB-500 as remote flash. Transmitter (camera side) in Manual mode, it does trigger SB-500, however, power adjustment (1/2, 1/4, etc.) in the camera does not change output of SB-500 (I assume it stays at 1/1 no matter what). Transmitter in TTL mode, it wouldn't even trigger.

I don't have that particular flash, but if recievers and transmitters are on the same channel the flash should fire. If you have a simple transceiver the flashes will not recieve any of Auto (TTL, HSS, etc) functions from the camera. They will have to be set manually. Another option is to use the built in optic trigger. There is some control from the camera but is limited to line of sight.

The triggers ar e not ETTL. They flash manually only. The flashes are ETTL if mounted on the camera.

Hello, this is a manual only flash similar to the Neewer TT560 but has a built in radio transmitter. I have 4 version III and one version II and having thebuilt in wireless is great feature worth the extra money in my opinion. I use a YN603 transmitter on my 5Dmk3 and it works great at 1/160 sec exposure. There are rumors of a new version YN603 that will allow you to change power setting with the YN560 III. If this is true the YN560 III and new YN603 will be a powerful combination.

Yes, the 568exII can, using Canon's optical wireless system trigger the 430exII. You don't need anything else unless you need additional features offered by the 622C.

I use Canon 600 speedlights on the Rapid Box as it comes with an adapter which fits with most speedlights and even the bigger ones like the Canon 600. However, it is a tight fit for the 600 and using it with a hotshoe trigger might create problems (I use the Canon ST-E3-RT to control the flash). Some radio transmitters will work as they can be hung by the side. Hope this helps.

Yes, it should work with any flash that fits and work on Canon DSLRs, the camera gives the signal to the transmitter and the transmitter send the signal to the receiver and the receiver triggers the flash

No. You need canon 600 rt or equivalent. This system is radio controlled and your flashes do not have that capability.

The Canon 600EX-RT speedlight is designed to work, wirelessly, with other 600EX-RT units (the "RT" stands for Radio Transmission), or with the Canon ST-E4; you no longer need 3rd party transceivers (such as the PW Plus III) to incorporate off-camera flash using radio transmission. Another company, YongNuo, has developed a shoe-mount transmitter (the YN-E3-RT) that is fully compatible with the 600EX-RT and also has an AF assist light, which the Canon ST-E4 doesn't even have. If you're still set on using your PW Plus III with your 600EX-RT, you can do so but you will only be able to use the flash in Manual Mode (not E-TTL), and you won't be able to change your flash settings remotely. This is fine if you're shooting in a controlled environment, such as a studio, where your lighting won't change but if you're looking to use off-camera flash outdoors and/or in changing lighting conditions, I'd highly recommend getting another 600EX-RT, which you can then use as a transceiver on-camera to fully control your off-camera one. If that's too expensive an option, get the Canon ST-E4 which also mounts onto your hot-shoe and gives you full control over your 600EX (or get the YongNuo version, which does the same thing but is a lot less expensive and also has the benefit of an AF assist beam for low-light focusing).

I've used it with my t3i with no problem. I used the optical slave sensor. As long as it can sense the cameras flash, it will trigger.
2211795
Yes, it does. I have the Canon t3i with the builtin optical triggers and works well. The menu allows to select both the canon as well as nikon wirelesd ttl slave modes. On cam it is a manual flash and does not support ttl.

No; the flash will not be in its master mode of operation in this setup. However, if you put the Canon 430EXII on the off-camera YN-622, you can get the YN-568EXII to trigger by using its S1 or S2 slave modes. These will trigger the flash when the flash sees that another flash has triggered. I've used that exact setup and it works great.

Yes. It works on my 5d Mark iii and my Canon T1i. Compatible with all but only with the 600 EX RT speedlite.
