Using your flash off-camera enables a massively wider and better range of creative lighting effects. Historically, remote flash comes courtesy of a curly cable that runs between your camera’s hot-shoe and the flash itself. Obvious drawbacks are that the distance is very limited and the arrangement is quite cumbersome. Wireless flash triggers are a much more elegant solution, cutting the cord and extending the range. ‘Dedicated’ wireless flash triggers are even better, as they enable a full range of flash modes and functions for specific camera systems, typically including the likes of automatic TTL (Through The Lens) flash metering and high-speed sync.
This Neewer trigger offers a full range of features and functions, while also making them easily accessible and adjustable via a color touchscreen interface. It works seamlessly with Neewer flashes, including the Z2, Z2Pro, Z3, Z880, Q4, and Q6. You can also buy a companion Neewer QR Wireless Flash Receiver, so that you can use it with other brands of flashgun. However, the range of dedicated versions only stretches to Canon, Nikon, and Sony. Either way, the Neewer QZ aims to be one of the best wireless flash triggers that you can buy, if you use one of these camera systems.
