Sounds rough. I would hate to be in the middle of a shoot and have a terrible run of inconsistency and having to fuss over shots when can really ruin it, especially when you have a client/athlete waiting around. I am eager to hear if you get a response to this from Canon, because obviously they have so thorough bug sweeping to do. Nice write up.

not looking for a response from Canon. Canon Has nothing to do with them. LPA Designs make the pocketwizard. They are the ones that need to sort this out.

I was not aware these came out, not that i have the money to put into PWs anyway, or flashes. That does sound rather inconvenient, although the possibility of raising sync speed sounds cool. Did anybody here anything about leaf shutter cameras or medium format, how far could you push 1/500th sync to? 1/750th or something crazy like that would be cool. All the people who use them to shoot skateboarding seem to be pleased with their (older ones) range, although the flashes are still a lot closer than when shooting skiing... Maybe eventually somebody will come out with a list of average and good offset values. They would get mad karma.

Im actually going to google using them with leaf shutters right now.

Wow, i just realized that if your max shutter is 1/500 you can't snyc any faster now matter even if you super-mega-hypersync it. That's probably why i found absolutely nothing on google. lol
