[QUOTE="Scott Murray, post: 384345, member: 9753"] Well I have owned a Nero lightning trigger for a few years now and have been quite happy with it. But there are some things now that I am finding are a pain. I am not going to mention the hot shoe dummy or anything like that, I will be referring to real live testing out in the field. I find the Nero to be very touchy and can either take a lot of shots or will miss the money shot if not set up right. I am also finding as the battery power is getting lower that I am needing to increase the sensitivity. I am also finding that I am missing daytime lightning shots (very annoying). I think if you are going to buy a trigger it should work in the day great as at night time it is easy to wait for the lightning in bulb mode if need be. I have ordered a 'Lightning Trigger' from the states which I hope will be here next week, and I will be trialing these side by side. The new one is twice as much as my old one in price but is alot more intuitive and apparently can discern between in cloud lightning and CG lightning (Cloud to ground), it also apparently 'will' get the first leader in the bolt so I am very keen to try it out :) so stay tuned for more testing and results.
