PocketWizard Plus Ve Transceiver

A fresh, sleek take on renowned reliability, the Plus Ve is PocketWizard's smallest transceiver, yet it still manages to include the rich feature-set and dependability that makes it a mainstay for professional lighting and remote triggering jobs. This auto-sensing transceiver uses the E Release firmware protocol, making it solely compatible with E Release-updated transceivers, remotes, and meters.

Suitable for photographers working in busy environments, like sports arenas, wedding halls, or busy studios, the Plus Ve has 32 selectable flash channels that all support Hex-Zone triggering. This six-zone configuration (A-F) lets you switch between multi-light configurations without leaving your shooting position.

For remote camera triggering, 80 long-range channels can be used along with five separate zones (A-E) for working with multi-camera remote setups.

• When set to the TxRx setting, auto-sensing transceiver technology automatically and intelligently switches between transmitter and receiver modes as needed.
• When used as a camera remote, two-stage triggering is possible to pre-trigger or wake the remote camera by half-pressing the E Zone button. This function requires a Plus Ve, Plus IIIe, or Plus IVe along with ACC Cables.
• Auto-Relay mode can be used to trigger a remote camera in sync with remote flashes using just three Plus Ve radios—one to trigger, one connected to the remote camera, and one connected to the flash setup—and the auto-sensing technology relays the received signal from the camera to transmit the signal to the flash.
• Flash trigger range is rated to approx. 1000'; camera trigger range is rated to approx. 3000'. A dedicated Long Range (LR) mode can also be used to effectively double this range in any environment, with potential triggering ranges reaching into the miles under ideal conditions.
• Supports sequential triggering at up to 14.5 fps with a top sync speed of 1/250 sec for focal plane shutter or 1/500 sec for leaf shutters.

The Plus Ve is specifically compatible with PocketWizard devices using the E Release firmware protocol, including the Plus IIIe, Plus IVe, Power MC2, FlexTT5, and FlexTT6 radios that have been upgraded; the FUSION TLC Raven; and select Sekonic light meters that have been upgraded to E Release firmware. This transceiver is not compatible with legacy PocketWizard channels and it cannot be downgraded to function on those channels.

PocketWizard's smallest transceiver yet, the Plus Ve has a streamlined design without a protruding antenna. The total height is 3.5" and the foot can be removed, revealing a 1/4"-20 mount, for an even smaller profile. In traditional PocketWizard design, the user-interface is also intuitive and straightforward for immediate use.

• Compact and lightweight design — 3.5 x 2 x 0.7" and weighs just 2.5 oz with the battery installed.
• Foot connects directly to a camera synced triggering without a cable; the foot can be removed for a sleeker design, especially when used with strobes.
• 1/8" sync port for cabled connections; compatible with a wide variety of sync cables and ACC camera cables.
• Simple interface is navigable via the 0.7" color OLED screen and a series of soft, physical buttons to adjust the settings.
• Removable lithium-ion battery can be charged inside the Plus Ve via the USB-C port; this 800 mAh battery lasts approximately 35 hours and requires 2.5 hours to charge.
