DSLRKIT PT-08XT 8 channels Wireless Flash Trigger
(This SET include 1 Transmitter and 2 Receivers)
Introduction
DSLRKIT&39;s latest radio trigger,easy to use,simple and safe.
"XT" means eXTreme,PT-08XT is the final version of DSLRKIT&39;s 433MHz trigger.
This time we added an antenna to increase the working range and reduce misfire.
We tested in open space. No obstruction such as cars, building or any structures, etc.
the effective distance can up to 100 meters,and almost no misfire at 100 meters.
Compared with PT-04 and RC-08,PT-08XT&39;s transmitter provided a battery door that you can change the battery easily now.
A large hot shoe locking wheel makes you feel more comfortable when using it.
The receiver retained the PC sync port,more reliable with screw lock.
If you are an user of PT-04 or RC-08,you can simply upgrade your system by purchase a new Transmitter of PT-08XT.
