Craig Ferguson tested the Phottix Atlas Wireless Trigger engineering samples in a real life scenario. The flashes were staggered along a path and they fired off as Betty rode past on the bicycle. The time was early dawn before sunrise. The filming done with the HD DSLR Canon 7D made the scene much brighter than it was in real life.
Phottix has since improved the active range of the triggers to well over 100m.
