Cactus V5 radio triggers seem to be about the best value for money. I bought some cheap chinese radio triggers (1 x Tx, 3 x Rx). I found them unreliable to the extreme and replaced them within 12 months with Seculine Twinlink devices. Two of the chinese Rx's have since failed completely and have been confined to the recycling bin.

Some of us have been here a very long time Bill, and can remember the days when it was a more pleasant experience to be here.

I'd like those days to return.

If we don't openly discuss the points we dislike, they'll never get resolved, especially using the private messaging system.

Checkout Lightroom related Podcasts in iTunes. Loads off useful info there.

Surely if people want to discuss an issue, they should be allowed to do so as long as the discussion remains civil.

Whatever happened to a little democracy around here?

If a topic is going to be closed, the members surely have a right to know why, irrespective of the standard get out, "We don't discuss moderation decisions in public".

I for one am not after a discussion, just a rational explanation other than "Topic closed". All that was needed was a mod. to have the courtesy to add another post to the thread before closure, explaining the decision. Is that too much to ask?

I have a O-ME53 permanently fitted to my K5 & K20D. I wouldn't leave home without one.
