While I haven't used all of the triggers on ebay personally, I can only recommend what I have used. I did use to work for Pocketwizard and was constantly blown away by our outdoor range tests of how well the camera triggering worked at distance. Plus, I got to bash around the Plus IIIs and PlusXes when we were designing them to test structural integrity. They're rock solid. It's totally possible that there's something out there even better, but knowing what I used I have no problems recommending a Plus III, Plus X, or any other PocketWizard trigger for this kind of thing. I think the money is well worth it for those triggers.Or if you are on a budget there are $12 Chinese ones on eBay that work perfectly.

Updating this. The Plus III and higher, the Plus III+ if you will, now has a new firmware that isn't compatible with the plus II and below if it's installed.The great thing about the Plus IIs is that they work on the same Channels as the Plus IIIs, the PlusXes, and the MultiMAXes. (Even the old, old Classics, Pluses, and MAXes too!) It's a great system to stay with throughout the years due to that universal compability.
Any of the plus series. The plus X's being the cheapest and can always be found on large retailers used sections. If you have a smartphone that has a headphone jack still, you can get the trigger-trap app plus a pocket-wizard into your phone, and get the ability to use all the cool shooting modes the app offers wirelessly.Which ones will work with Hassy H5D ? I see some for Nikon and Canon. TY
