For a very long time I’ve been waiting to buy all the little gadgets for my camera and the list of “things that would make everything easier” grew enormously. One of the ‘must haves’ was wireless flash triggers. I’ve been drooling over Pocket Wizards for years and waiting for them to make a smaller version of a clunky transceiver. They just released one for Nikon. In the meantime, a lot of competition came on the market. Yesterday, I opened my first parcel from Hong Kong, and here they were – brand new, shiny triggers, with a year warranty. Yes, they are made by a company whose name I can hardly pronounce, but they work wonderfully. For $70 I got a transmitter, three receivers, and a whole lot of cables that I still need to figure out. In comparison, Pocket Wizards are $780 just to start with. I’m sure that pocket wizards are superior in their digital ways, and maybe I’ll call them mine one day, but for now, I’ll have my love affair with these.
