Need advice for off-camera flash kit for my 550d?

Hello all,

I want to start using off-camera flash both indoors and outdoors so I'd like to make sure that I'm buying the right gear for my 550d. (I'm purposefully not considering studio strobes)

I was thing of getting:

- three Yongnuo yn600ex-rt speedlites.

- three Fstopper flash disc softboxes

- Some pocketwizards but I don't know which ones

- A lightmeter (a Sekonic, I thought, but I can't spend $500 on it...)

So,

- Will this gear work well on my Canon 550d?

- Which pocketwizard setup should I get?

- Is there such a thing as a good yet reasonably priced lightmeter?

Thanks in advance for your advice

seb

Canon EOS 550D (EOS Rebel T2i / EOS Kiss X4)
