well, i got my cybersyncs today and while i have not yet had a chance to try them out extensively i am quite impressed with them so far
very reliable triggering of the flash thru, walls,essentially plug and play ease of use,took me all of 5 minutes to have them up and running
have so far tried them with the transmitter in the hotshoe and then with a speedlight in the hotshoe and the transmitter attached to a 50D via its pc port
both ways work great
it really makes a difference as all this time i have been using the canon " line of sight requiring " system

Congrats! I got mines on Tuesday- and was also impressed by the triggers. Haven't fully tested mines either. But will try to do so this weekend.

You'll be happy with them. I just sent mine back to upgrade to the + model. Then I'll be waiting for the CyberCommander to ship. :cool:

I have been very happy with my non-plus models. Best thing I ever did, scrapping my crappy Cactus Triggers and getting serious. . .

Just wanted to throw this out there. I've been testing range on mines- and got to 450ft yesterday. The only reason I stopped was because it was hard to see the flash at that point for me. Not once did it fail. :D
Glad I got these instead of Pocketwizards- it saved me a lot of money.

I got mine about a month ago and has worked all the time. Over 1500 clicks without a misfire. The only thing I don't like is that the receiver does not have an on or off button so after each session I just take the batteries out.
