There is a bit of interest in the Cactus V4 triggers. I have had a set for a few weeks now, and here's a few results. There are some misfires, but nothing to be too concerned about. They also work in high speed sync mode with a 430EXi and LX3 combo. All in all, I'm pretty impressed with these el cheapo triggers. Oh, I forgot to mention, but my umbrella/flash unit blew over in the wind. The battery cover came flying off the V4 receiver, but no damage was done. They're reasonably tough.

1. Missus captured with 70-200 2.8 IS and 430EXi. (My new shoot through umbrella blew over and broke, so no diffuser(.

Actually Matt, my interest for photography was waning a tad until grandson #1 came along, now it's fun again. It is hard to keep the little fella still, but off camera flash, held at arm's length, makes things heaps easier!
