Then, I went with cheap Chinese wireless triggers. Unreliable and shoddy in terms of workmanship. Finally, I sprang for PocketWizards and I was a happy camper. Now, of course, there are more than a few alternatives to PWs that are reliable and well-made. But 5 to 10 years ago? Nope.jimmydhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04250574229270573468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30664106.post-27183240533797288252015-01-16T13:50:23.474-08:002015-01-16T13:50:23.474-08:00As a cave photographer, I agree completely.

My light requirements are pretty stringent: small and light enough to be carried through muddy passages no larger than I am (I crawled over a mile one day). Once we arrive at the destination, the light has to work reliably and put out lots of light (caves tend to be darkroom-dark, and I am not talking about having a safe-light on). I have learned that it is better to pay more and get good gear than to be frustrated by cheap gear that only fires sometimes.Kenneth Inghamhttp://keninghamphoto.com/noreply@blogger.com
