CTR-301P Wireless Flash Trigger 2 Receiver w/ PC Sync - eBay (item 180387745156 end time Aug-23-09 17:46:00 PDT)

I'm picking up a set this week along with some manual canon flashes and the YN462 flashes that the company also sells here.

Reviews on POTN and Flickr show that the flash units are decent though obviously cheaply constructed. The $40 shipped price tag makes them expendable though. The triggers have been tested through walls and at ranges up to 30ft away from the camera with no misfires.

I got my order of heavy duty light stands, triggers, and flash units for under $400 for 3.

I purchased this exact set 2 months ago. They work great and have yet to misfire. Great poppers for the price.

Only sad thing is that they dont sync above 1/250 sec. Actually mine cuts off a small part of my frame at 1/250, so i run them at 1/200. Still does great though. Ill have to post up some pics of some shoots ive done.

When do you need these with that fast of a shutter speed?

I wanna eventually get a new flash... I always seem to see great photo ops when it's dark out... plus i've been wanting to do a nice profile shot at night with my car.
