I've got a Z7 and a SB900 + SB800 (I've had these for many years). Some 10 (??) years ago I bought some cheap Youngno remote controls. They work but have always felt a bit ... "cheap".

 

I would like to get something more "solid" and wonder what my alternatives are?

 

My wishes would be radio-triggers (not infrared or something similar), if possible I would like to have both manual control and TTL.

I would get a set from Godox.

You need an X1R-N for each speedlite and either an X2T-N or an XPRO transmitter. I find the XPRO easier to use. The system includes both speedlite and studio strobes with built-in receivers if you want to expand your kit.

 

As you are in Sweden, here are links to our importer.

GODOX X1R-N TTL MOTTAGARE 2,4G NIKON

GODOX TTL RADIOSÄNDARE 2,4G X2T-N NIKON

Chris, you need the Nikon versions. Your link leads to the Canon version. The X2T included in these sets is a good trigger, even if the XPRO is easier to use.
 

Remember that you need to buy radio transmitters in the region where you live as FCC and CE regulatorns differ and the wrong type is illegal to use.

Tack.

 

I'll probably order this later today.
