this may be a stupid question but here goes

If you have a set of pocketwizard plus ii's for your speedlights they will not transmit TTL information.

However, if you are using them as receivers with a TT5 or TT1 on your camera - will they receive TTL information ??????

any help will be appreciated

cheers

Nope, they will not be able to understand any TTL data. But they are backwards compatible meaning they are able to be triggered by the tt1/tt5s.

No eTTL info. They are a fire only trigger. They attach with a simple 2 wire sync cord. You need all the hotshoe connections to utilize eTTL.
