I'm interested in taking lightning/storms picies. Lately with the weather it just seems to be a logical progression into the hobby.
With some help from Alex C. I now have all I need to run my Nex-5 with a Canon Remote. It triggers an IR remote that fires the Camera.
I'm enquiring on how lightning triggers work. I googled them a bit and it looks like most fit on the flash shoe of the camera. I'm thinking there must be a way for a standalone system to trigger a voltage and fire the IR remote in the same way.
Has anyone any info/links specifically on how the lightning triggers work?
TIA.
