Thanks guys,
Hey Marc, that is the second time I have missed a joke in the last day or so. Believe it or not Virgs is one of the guys I was referring and he is about the size of Mike. So it might be an interesting negotiation. LOL.
Chris, that is a person and I see what you are saying. I just had not paid that much attention to it and I may just clone it out in the next day or so.
For the Trigger; it is
this one. It is not a Greek trigger; an American one. For use with trigger I use ISO around 200-400 ISO, Aperture mode with aperture set to f8 which gave me a shutter speed of 1/50 of second. The trigger is very sensitive and will give a lot of false positives with all the RF it picks up. This is better though because it will pick up ground strikes two or three times with two to three frames. You will however use a lot of actuations (around 200 from this lot) but I am looking for results. Yes you just wait for the flash and the camera will active of its own accord. I basically set it and just try to shield it from rain.
Rob I hope that explains it for you. I have had the trigger for nearly 2 years now and captured some nice shots with it. It has been very reliable. I think I bought mine on Ebay for a cheaper price.
One thing to remember with lightning photography is follow the safety rules. It can be quite fun, but there have been times I near crapped myself because of how close the lightning has been.
