[QUOTE="WayneF, post: 221248, member: 12496"] Me too. Radio triggers are OK, they work, with the obvious advantages of range and obstacles and sunlight, but are gross overkill in most situations, certainly indoors. All those extra connections to make, and the batteries to replace... :) My notion could be different if a pro traveling to varied unknown locations, but for me at home, just simply not needed. And Commander is great, but it also obviously has its limitations too, line of sight, distance, sunlight, expandability.. but generally gives little problem indoors. Certainly is a fast setup. I much prefer optical slave triggers. Already provided in many cases, and they are triggered by the full working power of the any one of the others (as opposed to minimum level for Commander). Just never ANY issue in a studio portrait or tabletop situation. Manual flash of course, same as radio triggers. [/QUOTE]
