You can also aim higher and go for the way more professional and flexible PocketWizards, which also double as flash triggers, but they are much more expensive. The Strobies trigger is about 40 USD and well worth the money. It also supports single shots, bursts and B-shutter for long, manual releases. I never use AF on remote shots, so don't need that function, but for those who do, it's nice to have. The wireless trigger allows for the classic half press for focus and full press for release. ![]() It's really simple and works with both my pro bodies with their 10-pin plug as well as the consumer ones, which use USB connections. ![]() The Interfit has done well for me and only fails when it's out of battery, which has happened a time or two and taught me to carry spares when I use it. I upgraded from the Chinese model to an Interfit Strobies trigger, very likely also made in China, but a much better quality. That went for my first, cheap remote flash triggers, and also came to the camera release. I haven't had the best of experiences with these cheap no-name Chinese gadgets, and usually end up upgrading them to a brand product – or at least something better and a little more stable.
