It’s a great piece of equipment.

Easy and fast but most importantly reliable. I plug it in and can start shooting without having to think about and that’s important when you’re shooting children.

The triggers are easy to use and work very well!

The triggers are easy to use and work very well! The only issue is they were bought for use with Sony HVL60 flashes and the receiver will not trigger the Sony flashes as the center pin doesn't line up, the trigger does work on the hot shoe of the A77II. I have other uses for the set and as I said they work very well and are easy to set up.

Phottix is a great product

I have yet to order or purchase any photographic equipment that wasn’t a great purchase. I do all my photographic shopping at Adorama. Great selection, easy browsing, and prompt delivery. The photic ares II remote triggers work flawlessly. Would recommend them for ease if shooting.

Works

Dependable, I've been on several shoots so far. I have three Phottix Indra500 strobes and was using a Canon 5D3 with the Canon transmitter. I switched to a Fuji X-T2 and wondered how I was going to handle lighting. No TTL, but I shoot manual anyway. Works fine.
