Compatibility and useful notes
Flash compatibility
The device designed to trigger your flash unit. You need an additional 3.5mm male if your are using a Micro Trigger or a 2.5mm male for every else trigger (eg. HSF-ST, HSF-DB etc) to your flash unit compatible PC SYNC cable. Something to watch out for when using an older flash is high voltage on the hot shoe. High voltage flashes are not compatible for High Speed Photography and will damage the trigger!

Australian Customers
The Laser Triggers are not a laser emmiter but an optical detector of a wide range of wavelength. It can work with <1mw laser pointers that allowed in Australia and can be bought from a local store. If you can't buy because of a false ebay block, please report on Ebay.and send me a message.
Tips for attracting wild animals
Use some food to attract animals like bird seed for birds and nuts for squirrels or maybe water.
By using your flash will attract animal's attention and in most cases it will turn their head directly to your camera.
Don't set your camera trap where people go! If you don't see any footprints or artifacts it's a good place.
Try not to point your camera directly into the sun Make sure you deactivate any power saving mode to your camera
