If you have a 5DIII and the Phottix Odins....
V8Beast:
....could you please do a quick test for me? I'm about to order some Odins up, but maintaining high speed sync functionality is critical for my shooting needs. Some people have noticed that the PocketWizards will only sync up to 1/160 or 1/200. I'd like to know if the Odins can sync at 1/1000 shutter speeds or faster.

OMG its even better than I expected.
Elinchrom d-lite4 IT with odins will fire at 1/8000 sec and sync even full power!
not only that but 580ex2 will fire at 1/8000 sec with HSS turned off at full power
using the odin thats massive being able to fire 580's at full power at high shutter speeds increases the
usage by orders of magnitudes.
even better than that can mix both together firing and syncing at anything up to 1/8000 sec
(as fast as the camera will go) very nice
i've only used the odins in on the 580s in ettl until now
the elinchroms i was driving with the skyports
so with the odins you can mix studio strobes and speedlights and sync at up to 1/8000 sec
I love these things

How do you connect the odins to your elinchromes so they fire with the speedlights, and is it possible to have the 580s in ttl and in manual or is it just one or the other?
