Comments about Elinchrom Elinchrom EL Speed Skyport Universal Flash Trigger Set (EL19357):

Good:
-Easy to use
-Intuitive design
-Compact
-No misfires
-Comes with case to keep all items together
-New version has LEDs on both units
-New version of transmitter can now be tightened to hotshoe

Bad:
-No cable for Nikon speedlight in kit

Only having to attach the transmitter to the hotshoe of my D80 and the receiver to my Whitelightning 1600 I was ready to go in seconds. Not a single misfire yet however I haven't tested many situations or distances.

I've heard people complain about how hard it is to set the transmission code on the tiny switches on the units and all can say is these are dip switches and that's how they are suppose to be. You rarely change these settings and don't want to move them accidentally.

Like the previous version of this set it is missing a commonly needed cable to connect the receiver to certain flash units. This seems odd to me because of all the things people complained about with the old version this would have been the easiest for Elinchrom to resolve. Anyway, nothing a trip to the electronics store won't fix.
