Hi folks

Thanks

OK I'll bite - what is a R3-UT exactly? Not something I've ever come across but it sounds exotic!

Seculine wireless flash trigger.

I have a "wireless flash trigger" and use it every time I do studio work and need to use the strobes. There's a little gadget (transmitter) that slips onto the hotshoe attachment and 1 or more receivers to be place (attached) on the strobe/s. When I take a shot the strobes are fired without the problem of dragging a cord around from the camera to the strobe/s. I love it, gives me tons of freedom. Almost like slaved units being fired by the camera's flash.
Thanks Pentaxian450 for the simpler explanation.
Cheers

Thanks guys

I have gone the whole hog and bought one and it seems to work pretty well. I have not tried it at range but from other conversations it will work up to 50m which is ideal if you want to shoot some timid creature and it wont come to play if you are with the camera.
Stephen it is not the same as you use for your lights. I also use a cordless trigger for my studio work which is much cheaper than replacing sync leads that you have tripped over.
Hefty it is not even slightly exotic. On the exotic range I reckon it would appear just below a slice of beetroot. Just another, and I think useful, tool. It comes with a lead also which is very useful when doing macro on a tripod cos it eliminates shake especially if you shoot mirror up.
