Hi,
My cameraclub wants to rig a "Backpackers Studio",
with flashes, radio triggers, soft boxes, light stands, etc.
We need radio triggers that:
* Only need to fire the flashes manually - we don't need TTL.
* Should work with any brand camera (also Sony through the use of a hot shoe adapter).
* Should work as both a receiver and a transmitter.
If the trigger is both a receiver and a transmitter, with 4 triggers
we would be able to have 1 photographer using 3 lights, or 2 photographers
using 2 lights each (taking turns), etc.
I have a feeling that most available triggers are one or more of the following:
1) Specific for either Nikon or Canon - offering brand specific TTL.
2) Transmitter and receiver is not the same unit.
3) Rader pricey.
We could settle for separate transmitters and receivers,
if we got 3 receivers and 2 transmitters in stead of the combined 4 "tranceivers".
Anyone with any advice or suggestions on what to buy?
