    problems with 2 flashes + wireless triggers + D40x

    Hi There,

    I am desperate to solve something, and I wondered if anybody has any suggestion what I should do.

    I have two flashes. None of them are top flashes, but they supposed to do the job.
    They are 1. Topca 330 CTX and the 2. is a Nikon speedlight SB-15. Both working fine with my D40X.
    What I really want to do is to use both in the same time. I was advised to try these PT04 wireless triggers but they stopped working after 30 minutes. I tried an other brand, but still no joy at all.

    I would be very much grateful if somebody could advise me, what to do or what do I need to buy/try to use a more reliable cable driven solution.

    I have a cable for the Nikon speedlight, but unfortunately it flashes when I half pressed the trigger of my camera.

    Many thanks for any advises and help...

    I'm puzzled by the appearance of the hair in the first shot of the two kids. It looks...mottled for lack of a better word.
    Kids are for people that can't have dogs.

    Did you try replacing the batteries? In particular, the battery in the transmitter that mounts on the camera hot shoe.
