I have 2 180 watt Impact Monolights (flashes). I was triggering them with an Interfit flash transmitter which basically would send a small flash out and then trigger the cell function of the monolights. Less than perfect system but it beats running wires. I was messing with it today and my flash trigger quit working. It acts like a light bulb is broken in it and only a small purple flash emits when triggered and not enough to trigger the monolights. My question is just buy another Interfit (made in thailand) or get a treu wireless system. I am just not sure what I need. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
I may have answered my own question. I found this at BH transmitter and I would have to get another reciever I am just not sure how it would ft on my camera and if its pentax compatiable.
i use both pocketwizards and the paul c buff cyber commander (not a the same time...it depends on what i'm doing as to what i use). i can trigger my alienbees and my photogenic powerlights.
Thanks skip..I though about pocketwizards as well and I am sure they are more then adequate. I would like to get Alienbee's down the road so trying to see what they best method would be for future proofing.
Cheap Chinese radio triggers from Ebay all the way. They work perfectly fine even through walls and can prolly be picked up for a tenth of the price of the "name brands".
