Comments about Wein Wein HS Hot Shoe Slave (150' Range):

This will work great for flash units that trigger directly from the cameras sync port. It won't work well along with remote Master/Slave set-up using Canon 430ex or 530ex flash units.

Comments about Wein Wein HS Hot Shoe Slave (150' Range):

Good alternative to expensive radio slaves if you can keep the guests from using their point and shoot flashes.

Comments about Wein Wein HS Hot Shoe Slave (150' Range):

I use this in conjunction with my SB600. I have my D80 fire the SB600 remotely and the wein fires when the SB600 does. I am not using the TTL option on this one though. I imagine the one FOR digital cameras would work better, however for portrait photography at my level it is no needed.

Comments about Wein Wein HS Hot Shoe Slave (150' Range):

Works very good with all of my flash units, old and new. Will fire with trigger voltages as low a 2v-400vdc safely. Minolta 2800AF the 2 volt unit, old Metz 202 is around 200 volt trigger.

Doesn't work with Nikon SB600
By MikeVerified Reviewer from Southern Indiana on 11/7/2006
Cons:
Poor Interface

Comments about Wein Wein HS Hot Shoe Slave (150' Range):

The SB600 seems to lock onto the the trigger ok but it would not trigger the SB600. I soon discovered that applying a little pressure to the flash/peanut caused it to trigger at random.

The PC sync worked just fine with another flash. The slave looks well made but the hot shoe mount contacts appear to just be printed circuit bord patches
