Pros: This device has an excelent price. It works great, very precise. Has a four channel option and a good range.
Cons: The build quality is a bit scary, it feels like it won't handle the external flash's weight, but it does (as long as you don't move it a lot around, while mounted on the tripod and flash).
Other Thoughts: It came in a box well wrapped. It works just fine as you can see here(http://www.flickr.com/photos/armandelli/3443111165/)DX should also sell the transmitter and receiver separately.
Bottomline: Great gadget for photographers. Works well and has an excellent price.
Pros: These devices offer very good value for money. They are easy to use, 4 different channels, and I was surprised by the build quality. Ofcourse, it's not excellent, but it will not fall apart easily if you handle it with some care. The best part is that the receiver takes AAA-batteries. No more hassle with strange types of batteries, just normal ones.
Cons: Dealextreme still doesn't sell separate receivers.
Other Thoughts:
Bottomline: Works perfectly on a Canon 40D, with a Speedlight 430EX, and some old flashes as well. No problems with pre-flashes etc.
Pros: The product works very well. There is no delay between the press of the shutter and the firing of the flash. I am currently using an Olympus FL-36.
Cons: No instructions.Fragile quality.Lack of separate receivers.
Other Thoughts: Dealextreme should definitely carry the receivers as a separate item, so not only can we save a bit of money, but also save the waste of all these transmitters not being used.Initially, I had issues opening the battery cover and it felt like I was going to break it. The trick is that you have to get the bottom opened first before you can slide and lift the rest of the cover off.
Bottomline: If you want to get into new areas in photography, you can't go wrong with this price!
Pros: Allows you to use your flashes off camera and cable free.Let's you creatively use your lighting.
Cons: The price is higher than it used to be.Cannot get the receivers on their own.Does not have PC sync ports. I had to buy adapters separately. Not a deal killer, but much easier to mount your flashes with it's own hot shoe.Doesn't fit properly on a Canon 40D. I need to use a rubber band to get it to contact properly on the flash shoe. Not a deal breaker for this price though. Had no problems on a Rebel XT.
Other Thoughts: I freaking love these things! Let's me use my flashes with light modifiers on light stands mobile outdoors, indoors, anywhere.
Bottomline: Buy theses, and open up a new world of photography for yourself.
