The cactus (an unfortunate name for an electronic gadget, isn't it?) is supposed to synch at up to 1/1000 and has a hot shoe lock (note the Yongy does NOT so you are in danger of the flash and trigger slipping off the cold shoe on your liight stands) and it has a basic multichannel function which may or may not be useful - undecided on that one.

I am using a couple of cheap manual Yongy 560II's (they are almost exactly the same in every respect as the Canon 580EXII on which the copy is based bar the excessively complicated ETTL function and costing 1/8th the price of the Canon - amazing value for money!) and I also have a bundle of other old flashes which I have brought back into service using the triggers. You may want to consider the Cactus V - I just got a set of 4 (2 pairs) locally here in Aus for about $140 so maybe half as much again as a set of Yongy triggers, but since the latter sells for the same price as a pizza, that's 2 or 3 more pizzas I won't be eating so I believe I have made the healthier choice
