It still is a bit wobbly and I avoided the problem by using a hot shoe to PC cord adapter (about $12) and removing the bracket from the trigger. The trigger has a PC connection on it, so I just jacked the cable from the hot shoe adapter into the trigger and mounted the small box to my umbrella mount with some Velcro. <BR/><BR/>It is now super stable, has a lower profile (closer to the original orientation for the flash on the bracket) and is a very clean setup. You can also set up a dual flash unit off of one trigger by using a hot shoe adapter with a longer cable and triggering one flash from the PC cable connection and the other from the hot shoe on the top of the trigger, they will both work at once.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6983945462069753880.post-22381957984619501492007-09-09T14:09:00.000+01:002007-09-09T14:09:00.000+01:00Hi Gabriel,thanks for the comment.It will not be p...Hi Gabriel,<BR/><BR/>thanks for the comment.<BR/>It will not be possible to make the TTL available while using the Gadget Infinity.

I just don´t have the money for PWs and wanne buy those Cactus-Triggers from Hong Kong, is it possible to combine these triggers with ttl?
