[QUOTE="Moab Man, post: 651405, member: 11881"] I have Yong and Phottix triggers. Both triggers have been really good. The downside of the Phottix is they come as one trigger and one receiver and I have wanted one more receiver. So the other day I go into my local camera shop and they have some stuff on clearance - Phottix triggers normally $119 for $20. Like a cat on a mouse I pounced. Turns out the triggers were for Sony, which is why they have never sold. With a tear in my eye I put them back and bought what I was there for. Later, that night, while laying in bed half asleep it comes to me... I bet those triggers run on the same frequency and if I connect the the receiver by cable and not the hot shoe I bet it would work. The next day I went in with my transmitter, flash, and cable in hand. Hooked up the receiver to the flash and BLAMO! The receiver worked. Can't beat $20. Because I can't use the trigger I pulled it out of the box and tried to give that to them to give away. They passed, they said they wouldn't be able to give it away. [/QUOTE]
