Radio Triggers<br />
Using a radio trigger to fire the flash in synch with the camera has<br />
become standard, and for good reason. Radio triggers are wireless,<br />
unlike infra red transmitters they are unaffected by ambient light and<br />
they are reliable.<br />
We offer a choice of AC (mains powered) and DC (battery powered)<br />
radio trigger sets. We recommend our mains powered trigger set for<br />
use with our mains powered flash heads and battery powered trigger<br />
sets are needed for our Safari ranges.<br />
A trigger set consists of one hotshoe-fitting transmitter and one<br />
receiver. Only one receiver is needed when using mains powered<br />
flash heads, as the slave photo cell is normally used to trigger the<br />
flash heads that are not fitted with a receiver. Safari units are not<br />
fitted with slave photo cells, which are extremely inefficient when<br />
used in daylight, so if more than one Safari flash generator is used,<br />
each needs to be fitted with a receiver.<br />
Extra triggers and extra receivers are available for both mains<br />
powered and battery powered radio triggers.<br />
Our UltraPro range has a built in radio receiver, which can be used<br />
with our UltraPro Commander.<br />
All <strong>Lencarta</strong> flash heads are fitted with standard 3.5mm ‘audio’<br />
sockets, and so can be used with most brands of radio trigger.<br />

Hotshoe Flashgun Adapters<br />
Radio Triggers / Hotshoe Flashgun Adapters 68<br />
Using hotshoe flashguns off-camera nearly always produces a<br />
far higher quality of light than using them on-camera, and the<br />
quality of the light can be improved much further by using one<br />
of the <strong>Lencarta</strong> S-fit adapters.<br />
<strong>The</strong>se strong metal adapters allow any standard hotshoe<br />
flashgun to be clipped onto the adapter coldshoe; the adapter<br />
has a very full range of adjustment, allowing the flashgun<br />
reflector to be positioned accurately. Light shapers such as<br />
beauty dishes, softboxes etc can then be fitted to the adapter.<br />
We produce two separate adapters, one accepts a single<br />
flashhead and the other one accepts three flashheads,<br />
which can be tilted in different directions to light the insides<br />
of large softboxes equally.
