Does anyone here use the Pluto Trigger for water drop photography ??
Or know of another system??
I'm wondering if the Pluto is worth the investment or if their is something better...


Thanks Tom

I hear they are great but, as for me I have a Vello freewave styker II. Here is where you can get it at: B&H: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1191183-REG/vello_rc_lmnii_freewave_stryker_ii_motion_sound_lighting.html

My thoughts exactly....
I'm wanting to take waterdrop photo's for fun....if I was going to try and sell then maybe the $400 wouldn't hurt so bad...

Thanks LongRange but $400 is a bit steep for just wanting to do waterdrop photo's for fun....Thanks for the reply though...Tom

Well I was going to ask if you like it or not, but judging from these photo's I would say the answer would be Yes...

Thanks for the reply and also for posting some photo's...
