I bought three sets of some elcheepo ebay triggers. Cost me about a
hundred bucks total. I figured if I could get one set to work for a
year or two I'd be happy. I got about five years out of them before
they got too flaky to use much. I usually just use one one remoted
flash and the T45. The T45 has a Flashbender attached and I'm usually
aiming it off to the side walls or something like that to give me side
lighting. That needs some serious horsepower and the T45 delivers.

I'm more likely to pick up a set of Pocket Wizards now that Canon has
an RF based wireless system. The prices on them are starting to drop
and I can hit up a couple local pros for their old ones.

However, if I do get a new Canon DSLR with the RF system, I'll get a
pair of those flashes. It's a serious chunk of change, but I'm fully
convinced that for wedding photography it's the best system out there.
(honestly, though, I'm getting too old for that business).
