antonio_carusone Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 Anyone have any experience with these really cheap wireless flash triggers on ebay? They are selling for around $15. Any good? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derek_simpson Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 Very good - at least the ones I got from Hong Kong are. I've used both hot shoe and jack plug for studio. A small hitch with misfires at first until I reset the channel - good advice from this site- and fine since - no automation obviously but reliable performance. Despatched beautifully wrapped - like patisseries, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david_s5 Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 Some of the 4-channel models are have problems with Canon flashes -- depending on which channel they're set to, they trigger the flash when they're not supposed to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peter_steeper Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 What do you need to make them work with Canon flashes? ie 430ex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
graybrick Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 You won't get TTL with these, and for some you may need a hotshoe adapter unless they come set up with a hotshoe mount. Take a good look before you pick one, as there are several models available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
armando_reyes Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 What is the voltage sync on those gadgets? I need a backup to my Quantums Radio Slaves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
