[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 562645, member: 9240"] I use the Vello FreeWave Plus remotes. Unlike the Ml-L3 they are RF and can be triggered up to 300 feet away. Frequency is set via internal DIP switches so you can get 4, set them all the same and use a single trigger (i.e. one trigger fires them all simultaneously, which sounds like what you're looking for), or configure them for individual triggers. $60 each. I wish you could buy just add'l receivers, which you can for their flash triggers, but not these. I see that the FreeWave Fusion flash triggers also use the DIP switch system, and these can be used in reverse to trigger the camera (a neat idea), but I don't know if they're compatible.
