Congrats on the purchase! If you are using that level of kit (and have the money left) it has to be Pocket Wizards!
 
^^^ Seconded - if the funds allow, imho the PWs are the ones to get.:) My only experience of a budget flash trigger was a 'mare tbh - sometimes it worked fine, other times it would only fire perhaps two out of ten times.:(

The PW have never missed a beat for me so far and I strongly recommend them.:thumbs:
 
Harbour48 on eBay seem to be the cheapest, make sure you get UK ones too, as the US ones operate on a different frequency which is illegal over here. Look for/ask about the "E mark" if you are unsure.
 
i was looking at the Prolinca Infra-Red Trigger at around 50 quid... from the flash cente..

thanks for the comments so far...

Calumet sell pocket wizards and they are great, if you do go to them, try a little bartering, i saved £75, mind i did purchase a set of lights at the same time, but also got a £100 of those as well.

That's a good choice imo.....I used one on a course I did, worked faultlessly and didn't stick up in the air and get in the way when taking images in portrait.

Also when I had a session at Venture, the tog used one on his set up, :thumbs:
