I found that the PT-E2 has problems triggering the flash when the flash batteries are running low - so be careful smile.gif

Also, my PT-E2s have been having delayed triggers lately. I need to set the shutter above 1/30 otherwise it closes before the flash fires. I have no idea why, and I'm using first shutter curtain on both the camera and flash.

thanks for the heads up. Well, its china made so you know la lol im thinking of getting the ST-E2 next time. But im still doubting its reliability =/

About the delayed triggers, is it because of the batteries?

from what i see in youtube. its not because of the dc level of the batteries have gone low. it's because of the radio signal angle of incidence that sometimes mismatch and varies randomly (read: not very stable)
