Note: The FlexTT6 was created to make the newest generation of Canon cameras (such as the 1DX Mark II and 5D Mark IV) compatible with our ControlTL system. The difference between the FlexTT6 and FlexTT5 is a circuit board hardware change. The functions of the radios are identical. Any information or videos you see, with the exception of compatible cameras, is identical between the FlexTT6 and FlexTT5. To use a FlexTT5 with a FlexTT6, the FlexTT5 will need to be updated to firmware version 6.905 or later to function properly.


ControlTL

PocketWizard’s newest tranciever taps into the camera’s digital communications to enable an entirely new level of remote flash capability through our proven radio system. ControlTL allows remote TTL systems as well as Manual Power Control. ControlTL firmware is configurable and upgradeable for “future-proof” continuous improvement.


Dedicated TTL Triggering

The FlexTT6 Transceiver gives you full flash exposure control with the freedom and reliability of a PocketWizard radio. There are no special settings to make or modes to call up. Use the camera’s flash exposure controls for basic control of remote flashes, or add an AC3 ZoneController or Canon Master unit for even more flexibility.


Manual Power Control

Adjust the manual power settings of your remote Speedlights directly from an AC3 ZoneController, or master flash mounted on your on-camera FlexTT6. You can independently control the power output of up to three remote groups of lights (you can have as many lights in each group as you want) from full power down to the lowest setting through the user interface on the back of the master flash or with the dials of the AC3 ZoneController. Now you can work with total control with your remote lights, without leaving your shooting position.


HyperSync

Our patent pending HyperSync® technology allows photographers to achieve faster X-sync speeds with full power flash. That extra speed can be used to freeze action or cut ambient light - both of which can produce results never possible before. HyperSync works with both Speedlights and full size studio flash. All you need is a FlexTT6 on camera that has been tuned to your specific camera and flash via the PocketWizard Utility. While performance varies by the camera and flash equipment being used, HyperSync will get the maximum possible out of any set-up.


High Speed Sync (Auto FP)

When HyperSync can’t keep up, the native Canon system's High Speed Sync takes over for Speedlite flash photography all the way to 1/8000. ControlTL gains faster recycling times and more flashes per set of batteries when shooting in Auto FP / HSS Flash mode. Use this feature to shoot wide open in bright sun for amazing results.

Rear Curtain Sync

We've optimized Rear Curtain Sync performance with Canon cameras, to make eliminate image blur at the end of the frame.


PowerTracking

When working with certain manual flashes, you can change any of your settings on your camera and the system adjusts for those settings. Change your camera's exposure compensation to adjust the flash output, or make adjustments in aperture or ISO and the system balances your flash for proper exposure.


PocketWizard Utility
