I love it and I love the price. I don't see why I should buy an expensive one when this one does the same thing.

I would recommend this product if your demands are not critical and you get one that works as advertised. I use this to trigger Vivitar 285 flashes with a Canon Rebel XTi and Olympus E500. So far (limited use), it has triggered every time. However, it will not do the specified sync speed of 1/200-1/250. Shutter band begins to show above 1/125sec. [...]

Currently I have an Olympus FL-36R that can be activated wirelessly but you have to have line of sight. With this I no longer need line of sight, I've used it for one photo shoot so far plus some testing around (probably 100 shots so far). No misfires, popped every time. I will say the receiver is a bit bulky. I also have a strobe light (Flashpoint 620m), I like how I can use it to pop that as well but it just looks bulky hanging there. Still works though. Compared to a lot of other options this is a much cheaper alternative. I wouldn't mind having some of the more expensive sets but my wallet really likes these.

I just got this a few days ago, and have only played with it a little bit. It does feel a bit cheaply made...but so far it has worked PERFECTLY. I was able to set it up and use it in less than 5 minutes. I really don't think you can beat this, for the price!

On my first real outing with these I was shooting a birthday party. About 30 minutes into the shoot the SB600 (that I only purchased 3 months ago) went crashing to my client's hard wood floor. Not only did it upset my client, it also ruined my flash. Once I returned home I tested the grip with another receiver and SB600 to find out that even when locked perfectly, the flash can slide out it if the setup is not perfectly level. Unfortunately I thought the worst that could happen when buying a cheap transmitter and receiver was that they were unreliable, but instead it cost me a new flash. For those of you with this kit already, I'd suggest you invest in some electrical tape to secure your flash to the receiver, just in case.

I wanted an inexpensive trigger set to use on location with my photoflex softboxes and nikon sb600 flashes. They've fired every time and have more than adequate range.Tested inside and they even fire when triggered from behind a huge rock fireplace ! Only complaint is the transmitter doesnt have an easily replaceable battery. Looks like you have to pry it open somehow. Not willing to try that just yet.Overall more than I can expect from a trigger set in this price range.

The 2 hotshoes are so poor quality, that i have to retrofit two them, with a wisegrip! my two SB900 and my SB6oo fall from the base!! don´t fit at all!! the shoes are too lose!! and right out the box this don´t have more than 4 feet of range!!what a lemon! i am a hamradio too, and think this may be a soldering issue, a cold weld, or a poor coupled antenna..i will experiment[...]The 12 battery came exausted on the transmitter i change it..and nothing happens. the construction for the rest of device are well made. be aware that changing the battery on transmitter voids the warranty..what a lemon!!!

Works great so far, just hope it lasts, much cheaper than others. Only problem is will not transfer Canon ETTL info, have to set manually.

very easy to use, shopped around and found similiar for twice the price with the very same description and appearance. for the off camera setup I wanted it works great, with a non-dedicated flash, works as well as the extreme high dollar poppers

Much more reliable than using IR remote

It is pretty reliable, the flash is working every time. I haven't tested the maximum distance but at 15 meter it still work. I would recommend to buy a second transmitter if you plan to use it with a flash meter so you don't have to remove it from the camera every time you want to take a measurement.

Used on d300, the 1/200's speed is not consistent. Sometimes gets a clear image at 320,250,200 other times you get that shutter band.
At 160 its consistent.
