Flash remote options (pocketwizards, etc...)??

I'm sure PWII's are good but I'm surprised no one mentioned Radiopopper JrX's. While more expensive than the 602's they're great triggers.

Second, these are the triggers I'm using right now. They're way cheaper than the PWs and they'll give you remote power control on most flashes (and some studio strobes)

Mystwalker asked about reliability of the more expensive triggers. I have the Cactus and found them to be fairly unreliable and moved to Radiopopper JrX's as a result. A much more stable and reliable system with many more options. I'm also just in this as a hobby but these were worth the investment.

Yes. Radiopoppers, Cybersyncs, Skyports and Pocket Wizard are mopre reliable than any and all Ebay triggers.
But they are more expensive too..

I've been playing with old Cactus which have been working well for me - I shoot indoors (controlled environment) so range and interference probably not as big a problem.

Am looking into the PW Mini/Flex because would like ETTL off camera - ~$200+ each is pretty expensive for a hobby

Is there a review site that shows all and any ebay triggers are inferior compared to the others? That is a pretty large and vague statement to simply say there is nothing better than these 4. Better is such a subjective term.

I would give this a definitive yes since my RF602's died after I had them a week. I am going to give them another shot simply because they are cheap and I hope the odds of two sets failing are near zero, but who knows.
