That is for trasferring the commands, not for lighting the subject. And
that 1/32 power is what I remember it being. Could be more or less. But I,
unlike you, have seen the wireless E-TTL in action (but I've not seen the
results, that's why I'm asking this) and the commands do transfer very
easily.

The people I referred to are the ones that have replied to my post on and
