I am using the Yongnuo RF-602 on my 40D to fire the strobes.
Would like to do the family portrait (with me in the picture).
Wired (no less than 9 ft cord would be required though) or wireless remote shutter release is desperately needed.

Kindly suggest !
Thank you in advance !! :D

I have a Cactus remote release I got from Amazon that has never failed me. I can't seem to find it around the web anywhere anymore though.

3 RF 603's will do the trick - one on the strobe (considering 1 strobe), 1 one on the camera and you can use the other to trigger the camera and strobes together.

Oh I didn''t think of that, i can use my RF-602 to fire the strobes AND to remote trigger the camera !!!!
2 RX's on two strobes, 1 RX on the camera with the shutter release cable, and 1 TX in hand to trigger the RX's.
I am gonna try tonight :):):)
thanks for the idea !!!!
