Just got my Blazzeo speedlite trigger.

I just received my Blazzeo speed lite trigger set today from Link delight (included-1 transmitter & 4 receivers) First impressions: they seem to be made very solidly, I have triggered them the distances of my house (about 50 feet?) through walls,etc. works great.
I will have to play with it more, but right now I am very happy with the quality of the product and delivery time was one week from HK. You can not use TTL with this unit, but for under $50.00 very well made and seems to perform as advertised.

Awesome, I believe these were the transmitters you told me about, good to know they are decent. Just one question, what do you mean when you say you can't TTL them?

TTL means through the lens metering.
With these kinds of Radio tiggers you have to use manual mode.
The real pricy Radio tiggers such as Pocket wizard or Radio popper have the TTL feature.
But you pay for that :).

Well Glen I have only had it for a few hours, but I like what I see so far.
I have tested it for distance about 50feet so far, it triggers 10 out of 10 times so far. So I would have to say for the money it's great.

I tested the Blazzeo trigger set with a SB-600 and it worked great. Might I suggest this speed lite, it will save you a ton of money and with the trigger set it work the best, I think? I have ordered one myself and will get it any day.
I can let you know how well it worrks. It just seems a waste to buy a SB- 600 just to use it in manual mode.

We need a Link Delight forum for you guys...that way I can just minimize it and not have to sit here and shake my head so much while I'm reading.

Well Anthony I just thought using a SB-600 (high cost) with a D40 seemed like kind of a waste, unless Foxracer2 was thinking of up grading at some point.
And if using a trigger set that does not make use of TTL why have those features?
The SB-600 is great and the CLS is fantastic, if you have a camera that it works with.
The reason I recommend that speed lite is because it is manual and really easy to set.
It will work really good with a manual Radio trigger.

Yeah I have been looking for a diff flash cause yeah the Sb-600 is a little expensive. I mean if you have it, and you love it then I guess I can try it out. I mean its only 50 bucks, if it breaks ill just buy another one. Just one question, does the flash only work in manual mode on the camera, or other modes as well?

No, you have M mode,S1,S2.
You can use it in a group in S1' in S2 you have TTL. I think for the money you can't go wrong. I should get mine some time next week. I will post my thoughts on it on the forum then. You can then make your choice. But you can buy two and set them with the trigger and it would still come to a lot less then the price of one SB -600' not that the SB -600 is not a great speed light, I have one and I love it.

Quick up date on the Blazzeo trigger set, I have had it for two days now and I must say I am very happy with it. I used an old Soligor MK-3A speed light I have had since I was a kid. Set it up with my D200, it triggers perfect and the shots were great! So any old flash will work fine, as I said distance so far about 50 feet (no problem). I can see a lot of use for this unit, so far recommend it highly
