I was told by the Quantum rep at WPPI that the software for the S3 is in progress but not ready yet.

Quantum makes good stuff, but their pricing is out of the ball park by the time you buy all the little cables and adapters and accessories you need to make the thing work. It's very heavy; I have damage to my shooting hand from hauling a Quantum/F4s rig around for 10 hours at weddings every weekend. Further, I can't image the frail S3 body being able to handle the stress on it induced by being the handle of the rig on a Stroboframe.

Daniel Sullivan · Apr 1, 2005

Sorry to hear about your hand.

But all you need is a Qflash, battery and either a pc cord for AUTO flash or a TTL adapter for TTL use.

The Qflash is no heavier than a professional handlemount setup.

Best, Dan

Thank you for the replies.

I already have three turbo batteries that I use with my sb800 and S2.

I am looking to upgrade and was also trying to find out if anyone is using it "in the field" and how it is working with an S3.

Dan, I take it you are a quantum rep?

Thanks All
John

I've outed myself before.

Yes, I'm a Quantum rep.

Is that TTL adaptor compatible withe the Nikon D2X?

Dan Wagner · Apr 2, 2005

Hi Dan,

I have the D12 adapter. Can I exchange it for the D12i QTTL?

Will this work on the D2X?

Daniel Sullivan · Apr 2, 2005

You can have your D12 upgraded by Quantum to the "i" version.

I'm not sure about the D2X.

I can, or you can, call the Quantum Tech Dept on Monday.

631 656 7400 ext #2.

Best, Dan Sullivan

Dan Wagner · Apr 2, 2005

Thank you. I'll call them on Monday.

It is great having a rep that can/will answer questions. Three guys from Kodak help out on the Kodak Dye Sub group in Yahoo. They have answered a lot of questions with solutions that would have been hard to find anywhere else.

Thanks for being here!!
