Hi Sean,

I have read about the colour shift problems, but I haven’t encountered it yet in my shooting. From what you have said, I’m guessing that it would be when you are trying to balance flash with ambient in low light and using a high ISO and wide open aperture and the flash at really low power?

Derek,

I have the Einstein and Vagabond battery, it is very good, but it doesn’t have HSS or TTL and you will also need a separate controller/transmitter and a receiver to control the settings from the camera position. I think that that Indra is far better flash for location photography. Also you can’t pack or carry-on the vagabond onto airplanes.

I have one. Battery died after three uses. It works now great. I love it but the color is very poor shoot in TTL or manual using the Odin at a low power. It’s well documented. The work around is set power on the strobe manually use the Odin as the trigger only. They put out an update but didn’t fix it. I’m hoping Odin II does

I have been thinking about getting a Paul Buff Einstein and vagabond battery, this looks to be way much better.
