Bowens Pulsar Radio Trigger Single Unit

£132.99

This multifunctional device can be used to trigger flash units, film and digital cameras, and light meters up to 100m. To trigger flash you need a pair of Pulsars, one set as a transmitter connected to the cameras hot shoe, the other set as a receiver wired into a flash head. To trigger a camera you will also need a pair, one as transmitted and one as receiver. Because it used radio transmission, rather than IR, it allows for triggering around corners, through walls and is not affected by high ambient light situations. Choose from four individual channel and six studio selectors, each providing a unique ID for a different flash device or combine them to trigger all equipment within a given setup or studio. Pulsar also features a hot-shoe mount, sync in and sync out terminals, a ready indicator, a test button and an external power option. Because of its low-voltage operation, it is perfect for digital cameras. More

Comments about Bowens Pulsar Radio Trigger Single Unit:

We have three of these mounted on two camera bodies and a flash, and they work perfectly in a standard studio setup. While slightly bulky, the units are light enough not to be a nuisance and sturdy enough to survive a knock with a couple of kilos of camera and lens behind it.

The only downside is the price, which reflects the target market rather than genuine value for money. Still a solid one-off buy though.

Comments about Bowens Pulsar Radio Trigger Single Unit:

I have purchased 4 of these in the life of my studio gear. I connected one to a Metz flash from the 80`s and it didnt work, so i changed the triggers from TX to RX and tried it the other way. Little did i know i had just shorted out and killed both the triggers!! At least they still work when on the camera bodies in TX. A 3rd and 4th unit needed to be purchased, This was a pain but at least i have a trigger on each camera now.
