Hey Guys

Is their a cheap 'ebay' trigger that can sync up to 1/500 for use with my leaf shutter lenses.

Technology moves fast in this area and the last time I looked the YN 602s were being billed as the best bang for buck. Even if this is still the case (is it?) it looks like the 602s can only mange 1/200ish

So whats out there for $100ish or less (aka not Pocket wizards)

Cheers!

go to the "Maximum sync speeds" parts. different triggers have different speeds.

i got the commlite comtrig t320. very cheap, and very fast. got this to replace the rf-602 (which are slow)

I put a bit of a guide up here - http://flashhavoc.com/​flash-trigger-guide-manual/ (external link)

The YongNuos are really the only ones to avoid there when you're after higher sync speeds.
