    I'm looking to hook up my Canon 400d to my 2 Bowen 500 esprit lights wirelessly, believe there called a wireless radio flash trigger. What exactly do I need, 1 trigger and two receivers? And where would I get this kind of thing in Dublin would be looking to go into a shop and purchase today.

    Thanks in advance, a bit sketchy on this subject so forgive me ignorance.

    Go to Berminghms on the Quays and you'll get some good advice and be able to see some units.

    I use these. Got mine on eBay.

    I bought two of them - one for each flash but I only need one as the secondary flashes are triggered by the main one.

    They are generic (single contact) so will work on any camera.

    Wireless rules :D

    Just looked on Berminghams website (www.berminghamcameras.ie) and they don't seem to have them.

    Worth talking to them as they may know a supplier - there's one in Strawberry Beds, Lucan who have loads of studio stuff (www.miniphoto.com). They may have one.

    Otherwise there's tons of them on eBay but most are from China and will take a couple of weeks to arrive.
