where to buy strobe triggers

McVitae

Hi im looking into buying a strobe trigger such as the cactus V5 or something similar. My price range is < 80 euro but I cant seem to find anywhere online that I can buy them either from Ireland or the UK. Can anyone help or give advice. Id buy from a local shop but id be surprised if the prices could compete with online retailers. Might have to though if I cant find one

I bought the Cactus V5's here. Shipping took < a week and they fire 99.9% of the time for me. They go through batteries very quickly though so get yourself some re-chargeables.

And I've never, ever had a single, tiny issue with them.

EDIT: Should actually point out the ones I have are the 4 channel version, not the 16 channel version. I'm sure they work just as well though. They're also the same people who make the ones Pixbyjohn linked to below (Yongnuo).

I use these and find them 100% reliable plus they have facility for holding umbrella.

They will work with most makes of DSLRs

When using wireless triggers I find its important to set your flash gun so that it does not go to standby otherwise you might have to take a 1 shot to awaken the flash.

+1 for Cactus & Gadget Infinity. Have used Cactus since V2, now on V5, no complaints

I use the Yongnuo R-602's, brilliant triggers with a good range. You can find them on ebay.

No (e/i)TTL, but for manual use they're pretty reliable. ....and they're cheap.

i use skyports, my studio lights have them built in, and have some seperate recivers to trigger speedlites too

they even allow me to adjust the power of my elichrom quadras from the transmitter
