The Multimax suffers from the same drawbacks as the Cybersync, mentioned above.
Small button, & no way to trigger AF. (unless there is a trick, not explained in the manual.
Also, this type of device (designed primarily for triggering flashes) is meant to attach to your hotshoe. That makes it slightly cumbersome for shutter triggering.
I keep my Phottix velcro\'ed to the left side of my 5D, where it tucks nicely \"inside\" my L-Plate. Then I attach a small velcro strap to the top as well. this lets me detach it from the camera body, so it just hangs there, at which point it makes a great tethered trigger for minimizing camera shake.
I just LOVE this thing, except for when it decides not to work. I don\'t know why AB and PW don\'t understand this, and make a similar unit but with more channels and better reliability.
