Aputure Trigmaster Plus 2.4G review

Aputure Trigmaster Plus 2.4G

After getting the new Aputure's Trigmaster Plus 2.4G tranceivers (for Nikon D300, D700, D3, D3X) from manufacturer to be tested I was waiting to put them under real use in studio shoot.
During the shoot I took around 300+ photos without single misfire. Based on that one shoot I can say these triggers feel to have solid reliability for studio photography. Triggering can be done trough walls and even when the antennas are not in optimal positions or even partially hidden inside hand. I didn't put the triggers under extreme Finnish weather condition tests but one unit survived and still works after taking a small dive in meat soup plate. Note to self: don't eat & test triggers at the same time...

Berlin

Visited Berlin a week or so go. Great city to see. Our hotel was close to this Checkpoint Charlie tourist attraction.

Studio photos

Some blog updates after looong break. Going to start by posting some recent studio photos (below) and maybe product review or two later. Let me know what you think, and should there be more reviews or lighting diagrams how the photos were done.
