What is Bulk Rate? BulkRate is a semi-wholesale system with items priced separately from retail. When you use bulk rates, a flat $1.70 registered air mail fee will automatically be added to your cart to ensure delivery of package. While BulkRate's intention is to offer cheaper prices when you buy in bulk, because it is priced separately it on occassions show a higher than retail price. That's why we ask you to enter BULKRATE as a coupon code to manually activate the rates. You can always opt not to use the bulk rates. If you are looking for wholesale prices please feel free to contact us.

Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: Best price I've found for this product.
Cons: Seems solid but the threads for the tripod screw are a bit rough. Likely will smooth in time. I won't be using them much as it'll be placed on a light stand with a hot shoe mount.
Other: If you need a simple remote flash this should work.
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: It seems to trigger every time. I haven't tested the range, but for the studio work I do, it's perfect.
Cons: Doesn't seem to always trigger instantly.
Other: If you're a paid professional, you'll probably buy PocketWizards. If you dabble like me, $20 is pretty much free compared to PocketWizards. Totally worth it.
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: Great price, easy to use, lightweight, great for off camera shooting. You could purchase two of these kits, and some used flashes for the cost of the other PW option and have a multi flash setup.
Cons: Does not work with Olympus FL36/50 units. Olympus flashes use different voltage levels than these triggers supply. They work when plugged through a sync cord, but not wireless. I wish DX would have been able to check this so that customers wouldnt have to check for themselves.
There are so many versions of these things on the market it would be nice to know which one you are buying and if it will work or not.
Oh and the box was all white, no instructions of any sort printed on, inside, or included in the box. Thought that was odd.
Other: Amazing price, cheap enough to mess with and explore wireless strobing. Very cheap and has the potential of unlimited flash setups depending on how many receivers you get a hold of.
Very little support/instruction,
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: Really cheap for this kind of quality. Comes whit a sender and receiver. The reciever got a bracelet so you can put it on a small tripod. There is a testbutton on the sender. When you press tha button a red light flashes on the reciever. A made some nice pictures putting my camera on bulb in a dark room and let the flash flash manual whit the test button. Work good aslong you don't block the signal, haven't got one failure yet.
Cons: I can't get the screw from the bracelet out of the reciever. It's irritats me when i want to make pictures whit the flash in my hand in stead of a tripod, but it's no big deal.
The signal needs a rough clear field, its nog strong engough to go true my hand for example. Be aware of that.
Other: If you got a flash for you camera and you want something new to play whit, but it, its good value for your money.

Pros: - Works with Canon 430EX
- Works with AAA, not some funky size
- Range is very good!!
- Four channels, so creative with setups
Cons: - Battery cover is fragile
- Flash plug in sending unit is not standard
Other: If you own a Canon EX unit, buy it. There are a lot of other units on the market, and my experience is that they just don't work. This unit is not only cheap, it works like a charm.
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: it works really great, also over a great distance. works withs multiple receivers if you chose the same channel.
it works with AAA battery's witch is better than the older version.
Cons: it took quite long befor I received it because it was teperarely sold out.
the battery's somtimes fall out when you are not carefull.
there is no pc cync connector on the receiver so for some studio flashes this will be a disavantage.
Other: just buy the thing and be amazed !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: You can use ths in conjunction with other wireless transmitter sold on DX. I have tested it and it fires successfully. It is cheap and very reliable (at least from my usage so far). Use this to get your flash off-camera for much better effect.
Cons: Slightly weak build.
Other: Get this because it is reliable and cheaply priced. It will help your photography alot because you can get your flash off-camera.
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: Cheap
Simple
Good range, goes through walls/doors. Doesnt need a direct line of sight.
Does what is it supposed to do right out of the box.
Cons: Perhaps the build quality of it, but even here I don't find so much to complain about really. For this price the build quality is decent. It doesn't feel very fragile but it could be better.
Other: As stated, I've tried this on a Canon 580EX II and it worked perfectly. It even syncs with my 5 fps limit on my Canon 30D.
If you are looking for a good flash trigger but don't want to spend alot of money, this is what you are looking for.
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: Quick and easy to use, however it's taken me over a week to get it to work with my Sigma due to a unintuitive setting on the flash.
http://flashzebra.com/tips/supersigmamanualmode/index.shtml saved my bacon as I would never have figured it out myself.
Cons: No sync cord (which you do get with sku 13089) and the problem mentioned above with regards to the Sigma flash.
Other: A great buy but pity we cannot buy receivers on their own but guess I have a spare transmitter. Pair this up with the umbrella & flash bracket kit.
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: Unit is compact and well constructed.
Simply attached it and turned it on and all was well - too easy!
Great range (for those who have said otherwise, the ranges often discussed are more than would be usable for the flash units anyhow).
Speed is also good with no noticable delays.
Cons: Outer casing could perhaps be a bit more durable, although if you treat it with the same care as any other photographic equipment it will be fine.
Other: Great unit overall - would happily recommend.
