    AlienBees CyberSyncs

    Couldn't find any decent literature on this forum regarding the CyberSyncs./

    I am planning on getting these to trigger off a D90 over to 2x SB900s.

    Any comments, suggestions, recommendations from you guys?

    Thanks

    I can't see much advantage in using an expensive proprietary brand to trigger a non same brand flash when something like the Yongnuo RF-602 triggers will do a good job.

    Yes you can, the Paul C Buff has set up an Australian store - Paul C Buff Australia.

    Prices are pretty colse to US + postage.

    I am going to grab a set near the end of the year (by set I mean 1xTX, 4xRX). OP the triggers you'll want are the CST and the receivers are the CSRB's.

    I@M, having a local distributor and local warranty is enough to make me spend the extra. Not to mention the for factor is nicer as is the build. I've played with cheaper triggers in the past and while they are 'good' I need great for the commercial work I am doing. (I can't speak for the OP though).
