oh my god. what a corporate shill. "That’s why I started with Pocket Wizard and have stayed with Pocket Wizard. Their commitment to quality, reliability and the ability for all of their products to work together is unmatched." give me a fucking break. he talks like a marketing department.
his advice is MAYBE relevant only to pro photographers who can afford top-of-the-line equipment, and if you're a pro photographer who can afford top-of-the-line equipment, you have enough experience to not need advice from some blogger-photographer.
for everyone else, it's just consumerist inducement to overspend.

- I would assume you'd have to get into bed with some of those companies in order to afford some of their products.dropdown

- ... to read about what it's used for.dropdown
