thanks for the info on radio poppers. I’ve been wondering about them. I also agree with you about PW’s. They can be such a pain if you’re shooting fast and a little uncontrollable at times. I’m going to try out the radio poppers at my next event.

Great shots on your blog, BTW!

cheers,

I just started testing RadioPoppers with my Canon 550 strobes and noticed FEL doesn’t work properly. To my great surprise I contacted RP and was told they have never tested FEL with their product.
Canon ETTL is not very good so I often rely on FEL.

Do you or other photographers you know have any experience with FEL and RP ?

Thanks

Great review, but you need to get better gaffers tape! I’ve been in temps that could cook a goose and never had an adhesive problem.

Great review! I posted a fix to the gaffer’s tape problem on my blog here that you might find useful (uses velcro instead of tape): http://realphotography.com/blog/radiopopper-review/
