Products.
Wireless flash trigger and transceiver.
Cactus has been manufacturing wireless flash triggers using radio signal since 2007 and has been focusing its research on cross-brand compatibility in radio flash triggering system. Its V4 wireless flash trigger and V5 wireless flash transceiver are both equipped with a multi-pin hotshoe and work with most of the portable flashes, but are not able to remote control power of the flashes. Until 2014, Cactus combined the proprietary electronic extensions of Nikon, Olympus, Panasonic and Pentax into a multi-brand hot shoe and released the V6 model with which the power of multi-brand flashes can be remotely controlled wirelessly.
Wireless flash.
In 2014, Cactus released its first wireless flash RF60 along with Cactus V6. Cactus RF60 has a built-in V6. Therefore, it can receive wireless triggering signal from a V6 and fire itself accordingly without having to attach an external V6 to the flash. When using with Cactus V6, both power output and zoom level of the RF60 can be adjusted remotely.
Laser trigger.
In 2013, Cactus developed the world’s first laser trigger that has built-in radio frequency module for high-speed, wildlife and trap photography.
Camera accessories.
Cactus also manufactures studio umbrellas and softboxes.
