I will echo what Robert said.
Love my syncs.
Just have to come up with a creative way to mount them.
Velcro on flash head, Velcro on back of sync.
The syncs are no-nonsense. It is plug in and go. You can use them with any makes/models. They do not support ttl. They are extremely reliable and never have had an issue.
The things I do not like are the pc sync cables on the 580exii.,,the socket is a piece of crap. But that's not the syncs fault, as you can use the much cheaper and much more reliable 1/8"-1/8" cables...just don't buy them from mpex or pcb...they are too expensive. $10 for a 16 inch cable...I can buy a damned 10' 1/4" guitar cble for a buck more.
With that said, the Strattos look nice. I don't like how they mount and I do. I think it is awesome to still have ttl on camera, but at the same time they add height to the flash on the umbrella swivel. Also (not sure as I didn't look) can you use them on non flash foot items? I know when you buy them you buy canon or Nikon. Can you still use manual OCF if it's another brand?
