They're more of a solution to a problem (needing reliable off-camera flash triggering) than something you buy as an investment... perhaps google them to get some info or do a search on here, mm? google "pocket wizard" and you get their website first up. Lots of info on there. Also check out Strobist, he probably has some info on them.

Pocket Wizards are radio-frequency remote-control devices that can be used to fire flashes or trigger another camera remotely.

If you're doing mulit-flash head or strobe photography or if you need to trigger a second camera (as in shooting sports) then PWs are really handy.

Two of the big advantages are range and the fact you don't have to have line of sight to use them.

What do you mean by "invest in"? To buy and sell for profit? Sorry but I don't quite understand what you are asking.

If you don't know this, you don't need them.
