hi guys, what triggers/receivers you using ?? what is most popuplar? what is cheapest and ofc witch one is in a middle (in good quality and normal price) ?
 
I use rf-603 with my Nikon d90 and sb800.
 
I use YN622N with my sb700 and d7K. Can do iTTL and high speed sync and there is a controller coming in December. What's not to like? I researched heavily and the 622 give great bang for buck and never falter
 
I got Yongnuo rf-603 as they are a perfect match to the Yongnuo 560 III flashgun as it has a built in rf-603 receiver.
 
he he, everybody using some popular :) and witch one is bad ones? have anybody some practice in that ? what was wrong?
 
I think you need to decide how much you want to spend first before deciding which trigger to get. If you want the best one you are looking for over £100.
 
I would rather say what do you want to you it for and what do you need ?
Do you need/want TTL ?
Do you need/want passthrough ?
What range do you need/want ?
Do you need/want interchangeable receiver transmitter ?
Do you need/want to change setting remotely ?

Each choice will effect the price.
I have a whole range of remotes and the cheapest ones, have short range, do nothing special and work 99%.
The more expensive allow me to adjust power, set groups and all this from the a single control unit.

Yongnuo YN-603 is a nice middle of the road remote.
Yongnuo YN-622 is similar to the YN-603 but with TTL and it has a command unit being released soon ( for Nikon ) the canon allows TTL control on camera.
Phottix Strato II is also very nice, it is also is compatible with the Phottix Odin.
Then the cheap ebay specials are the ones that do nothing else but fire your OCF.

What Dewan said - there are many triggers, with different specs. What do you need them to do.

The bare minimum is 'fire my flash', the top of the range have variable timing on the high speed sync to match to your particular flash heads. and lots in between
