So you know enough that you want to get the flash off camera but you're just starting out and you only have one decent flash unit (that Elinchrom or Profoto system is just a tad out of reach for the mo), what are your options? Well it comes down to two: either a flimsy sync cable trailing everywhere acting like a treacherous trip wire or an expensive add on transmitter. Or, you could try this as a cheap and cheerful alternative okay you won't get E-TTL but trust me you'll live. It's not pretty to look at the receiver is shoe mounted and is a bit on the bulky side which means you'll miss the center of an umbrella even more so, (Some say this will affect the quality of the light hitting your subject), but then again going by the design of most flash/umbrella brackets and small flash units you're going to do this anyway.
When starting out the most important thing is to take pictures and if this encourages you to do so then job done.

Like you, I was probably sceptical about whether this cut-price item could do the job, especially when compared to it's higher-priced cousins from the Canon and Nikon worlds.
I needn't have been concerned!
The wireless transmitter and receiver performed flawlessly, every time, although it did begin to falter occasionally after a 20-foot-plus distance. Understandable, I suppose, as none of them work flawlessly up to the (maximum) distance stated, in my experience.
But for small to medium distances, this combination is very well worth the money! Quick response, and I had no trouble with frequencies - although you can change the frequency range to one of 4 possibles, just in case your neigbour's remote controlled garage door is causing interference!
Lightweight and reliable, I'd recommend these to anyone.
Now ... if only I could work out how to set flash power properly when firing remotely, I'd be laughing! :o)

This is a great way to set your flashguns off, all at the same time. I have a Canon 500D and I bought this to use on my very own set up.
Work out the exposure, set the camera in manual, the speed, set flash power, focus and shoot.
Again I bought this item from BV electronics as I did with the flashguns and they work very well together ( see my other review on these flashguns ).
I would recommend these triggers from BV electronics to go with their range of flash units.

Excellent Value
Very good for the price, I use it with my Jessops 360AFD and it is good. I would suggest using the flash in manual mode for this though.
