BD, incredible clouds. Looking forward to your getting the "nuances" of your lightning trigger all working. I am curious about it because I am thinking about buying one myself. Is there a reason you chose the MIOPS?
They are noisy because the exposures are fairly long even though the flash is instant, it's not the end of the shot...also, this streak was likely 25-30 miles away forcing me to bump the sensitivity p to 98. I am still a work in progress with this trigger.
Western Guy, I chose this one because a friend uses it as well and he's produced some spectacular shots using it...it also has other functions for motion, doing water drops, etc.
