Sekonic L358 & Pocket Wizard Plus II remote triggering real world range test

Being able to remotely activate your camera's shutter has always fascinated me. The applications are endless. This is one of the benefits of a DSLR system. Using the wired electronic shutter release cable, Canon timer remote TC-80N3, eliminates camera shake and offers some other cool features such as intervalemeter (Time lapse) shooting and long exposure capability. You're still tethered to the camera of course. Also testing a couple of remote shutter triggering methods wirelessly from a distance. Using the Sekonic L-358 and the Sekonic Radio Triggering Module RT-32 installed as well as the Pocket Wizard Plus II units themselves. Using the PocketWizard CM-N3-P Pre-Trigger Motor Cord for Canon to trigger the Canon 30D. The 580EXII flash was triggered in relay mode where the channel is set one higher than the one assigned to the camera. Being able to take a light reading on one channel then switch to another channel to trigger the whole setup from the Sekonic L-358 is awesome! Frees me from having to get another Pocket Wizard unit. In my unscientific real world test indicated the range at around 50 feet for the Sekonic L358 and about 150 feet using the Pocket Wizard Plus II to trigger the setup. As other users have found, the 1000+ range advertised is very optimistic at best. Canon 580 EX II flash units have been known to emit some interference when used with the Pocket Wizards. I haven't tried the shielding material, but have some on hand and may duplicate the test to see how much of a difference it really makes.
