Photography simply means drawing with light. Meaning that the place and importance of lighting cannot be overemphasized in photography and as photographers, we all must know how and when to use a light. One of the many lighting gears is the flash trigger, the flash trigger is an equipment needed when photographers need more than one light rather than only the speed light at the top of the camera. It is kept in light modifiers such as soft box, strobe light, etc., and can be used to control more than just one light source. When the shutter is clicked on, the camera trigger sends a signal to the other receiver on the light source to produce nice and beautiful images.
