Interference-free, Cordless
Remote Flash Control
If you shoot weddings,
events, industrial or other location work, Pro-Sync is for you. Pro-Sync
provides cordless, remote flash control with virtual immunity to
interference. Unlike radio frequency (RF) remote flash control systems,
Pro-Sync uses state-of-the-art coded infrared technology to fire remote
flash units. Common sources of radio interference, like cellular phones,
pagers, and cordless microphones (increasingly common at weddings) can
disrupt radio flash control signals, but not Pro-Sync. And because the
Pro-Sync signal is encoded, it cannot be triggered by any flash or light
source.
The Transmitter
The transmitter can be mounted on, and fired by any standard camera
hot shoe (or connected to a PC terminal for off-shoe use). Just slide the
compact transmitter onto your camera; no cords, no antenna, nothing to
clip to your belt. A pair of "AA" batteries in the transmitter
powers up to 5,000 shots, with recycle times averaging less than a second
- faster than most any flash- so your Pro-Sync is up and ready when you
are.
Each time you shoot, the transmitter fires, and an "explosion"
of coded infrared light fills the room, bouncing off walls and around
corners. You can't see the signal (neither can your film), but the
Pro-Sync receiver can.
The Receiver
Plugged into your remote flash, the Pro-Sync receiver is in a
"standby" mode. Pro-Sync receivers are incredibly
sensitive and can easily pick up the signal from behind backdrops, soft
boxes, even around a roomful of wedding guests. Nothing else can trigger
the receiver, not even a full-power flash fired inches away. They work
indoors or out, with a maximum range of 600 feet (indoors).
The receiver draws power from the flash to which it is connected; there
are no batteries to change. Receivers are available with either
integral "H"-prong (household-style) or monoplug
(European-style) sync connectors, so they connect directly, cordlessly, to
most professional flash units or power packs. For additional
versatility, each receiver also has a standard PC terminal.
A Pro-Sync for every application
Choose from two Pro-Sync systems... each has different features and
applications, both have the same 360o/600-foot performance.
Each includes one transmitter and one receiver (choose "H"-prong
or monoplug connection). Add any number of additional receivers as you
need them; each of the private Pro-Sync channels works with any Wein
receiver on the same setting.
