PocketWizard Plus IVe Transceiver

On-Camera TTL Flash / Remote Manual Flash

The Plus IVe features a top shoe providing TTL compatiblity with most Canon, Nikon and Panasonic cameras and flashes as well as some Fuji and Olympus gear. This allows photographers the versatilty to shoot with an on-camera flash in TTL mode while triggering their remotes in manual mode. Easily slide a speedlight into the top shoe of your receiviing radio and you are ready to start triggering your remote flash in minutes. A perfect setup for wedding photographers.

Top Shoe

The top shoe on the Plus IVe allows photographers to easiy set-up their speedlights. No sync cord required.

Simple User Interface

The Plus IVe has an intuitive user interface where all channels, zones and modes can be easily engaged via a soft-touch keypad, and displayed on an easy-to-read backlit 2.5cm (1”) LCD display. When you’re working in dark environments, simply press any key other than TEST to illuminate the LCD.

32 Channels

With 32 channels (16 standard plus 16 Quad-Zone Triggering channels), the PocketWizard Plus IVe Transceiver enables you to trigger individual or groups of lights simultaneously or individually. This is critical for working in crowded venues or with multiple lighting set-ups.

Quad-Zone Triggering

Selective Quad-Zone Triggering keeps you shooting photos, not running back and forth to your lighting or cameras. Without leaving the camera position, you can wirelessly activate or deactivate your remote flashes or cameras in 4 separately controllable zones: A, B, C, or D. This is ideal when using multiple lighting setups or turning remote cameras or flashes on and off as needed.

Auto-Sensing Transceiver

With our patented Auto-Sensing Transceiver technology, the Plus IVe Transceiver is one smart radio. When set to TxRx, it will instantly and intelligently switch between transmitter and receiver modes as needed for greater flexibility on the job. The Plus IVe may be set to transmit (Tx) or receive (Rx) independently if needed.

Two-Stage Remote Camera Triggering

The Plus IVe Transceiver is the perfect solution for remote camera triggering. The unique two-stage TEST button on the Plus III works just like the shutter release button on your camera. Press it halfway and your remote camera connected to your Plus IVe wakes up to meter and focus. Press TEST all the way to take your photo. When released, your remote camera will return to sleep mode normally; a real battery saver.

Auto-Relay Mode

Our Auto-Sensing Transceiver technology lets you trigger a remote camera in sync with remote flashes using only 3 PocketWizard radios: the one in your hands, a Plus IVe cabled to your remote camera, and the one connected to your remote flash set to one channel higher.

Long Range Capability

Range is comparable to other PocketWizard radios. Shooting environments are seldom ideal, so the Plus IVe incorporates two range extending modes for the challenges of the real world. Use Long Range Mode (LR) to nearly double the effective triggering distance in almost any environment.

Repeater Mode (RP)

In very challenging environments or extremely long working ranges, place a Plus IVe in Repeater Mode (RP) between your transmitter and receiver to repeat the signal and complete the connection. These modes take a little extra time to do their jobs, so maximum X-sync may be reduced when firing remote flashes in LR or RP modes.

High Speed Receive

Normally, the Plus IVe is capable of triggering lights or cameras at a sustained rate of up to 12 frames per second (FPS), with a standard for PocketWizard radios. Set the Plus IVe to High Speed Receive Mode (HSR) and trigger at rates up to 14.5 FPS, beyond the capability of most of today’s cameras. This mode can also help high FPS triggering compatibility for any flash. TTL operation reduces the fastest FPS a system can use.

External Power and Firmware Upgradeable

The Plus IVe is normally powered by two AA (IEC:LR6) batteries. For long term remote placement, use an AC adapter, like the PW-AC-USB Adapter, that plugs into the standard Mini-B USB port of the Plus IVe. The USB port also enables future upgrades of the Plus IVe operating system.
