/2 Comments/in , /by

We’re so excited to introduce the PocketWizard Photo Booth Kit!  It’s a complete PocketWizard PlusX radio trigger kit that’s easy to set up and is a fun addition to any type of party of event. Whether you are a professional event photographer or a hobbyist who wants to bring a little fun to your next party, you are going to love it!

What’s in the PocketWizard Photo Booth Kit?

  • 3 PocketWizard PlusX Transceivers
  • 1 PocketWizard Pedal
  • Flash sync cable set
    • Locking PC sync cable
    • 3.5mm (1/8”) miniphone cable
    • 6.5mm (1/4”) phono adapter
  • PocketWizard G-Wiz Vault storage bag

You will need to purchase a remote camera cable separately which is specific to your camera. Check our Cable Finder to identify the one you will need. Use this kit in conjunction with your own camera and flash.

How to Set Up your Photo Booth

Connect the pedal to one of the PlusX radios. Elevate the PlusX at least 6-12 inches off the ground. Use a tripod or light stand for best results. Set it to Channel 1.

Put a second PlusX in your camera’s hot shoe and also set it to Channel 1. Connect the PlusX to your camera with the remote camera cable. Place the camera on a tripod or sturdy surface. For best results set the camera to manual focus and lock down the focus.

Connect the third PlusX to the flash via the appropriate flash sync cable. Set this PocketWizard to Channel 2. We used Channel 1 and Channel 2 in our example but you can use any Channel you like, just be sure to use the same Channel for the radios connected to the camera and foot pedal and use a Channel that is one higher on the PocketWizard connected to the flash. This is called Relay Mode.  



Use any type of photography light that you choose as long as it has a sync port for a flash sync cable.

The guests simply push the pedal with their foot to take their photo. Add a fun backdrop and props and you are good to go!

We set one up at our summer company picnic!  Good thing we’re not camera shy!

    I love the PocketWizard products. I have two PocketWizard MultiMax’s for triggering another camera with a remote for sports. I’m thinking the Plus IV with the flash shoe would be a good addition. It would offer me a little more versatility.

      Thanks Thomas! The Plus IV is a great addition. As the transmitter, when used on your camera, you can still use an on-camera flash. As a receiver, when doing off camera flash, it’s a quick set up, no cables needed and it has a handy stand for the flash.
