If your on a budget then these will work on all entry level and mid level Nikon bodies. These are rated to work at a speed of 1/320th maximum sync speed on SOME bodies. However all of my Nikon's that have a fully mechanical shutter, these triggers will sync to 1/200th max. If I push it to 1/250th then you'll see part of the shutter in the bottom of the image.
On the plus side if you own one of the older 6mp Nikon's from 2004 to 2007 then your in luck. The D70/s, D50 and D40 used a hybrid shutter system. Those 6mp bodies have the ability to sync to 1/500th of a second. I'm happy to report that my old D70 can happily shoot at 1/500th all day and not have any issues with the shutter getting in the way. This is VERY useful for out door shooting on a budget.
Whats even better is that I've been able to sync my D70 at 1/800th and faster! This is something that the optical flash commander on the D70 simply wouldn't allow, the D70's flash commander is limited to 1/500th max.
Having the ability to sync that fast is awesome. It means you can now use the flash to get better, more creative lighting and also to freeze your subjects, this is very useful for outdoor photography. For indoor use its pretty much useless unless you have ALLOT of light to work with. Otherwise you'll just get very under exposed or maybe just black images even with the power cranked all the way up.
Another plus to these radio triggers is the fact that your not limited by line of sight or range. With optical and infrared triggers you have to try and keep everything inline for the most part, which limits how you can place your flashes or where you want to stand once you've got everything setup. You also can't be more then 40~50 meters away from your subject. These triggers work using radio waves. They say you can use these up to 100 meters away which is true. You can also place your flashes anywhere you want, any way you want and these babies will still set off your flashes. That alone is worth the 32 bucks!.
The only down side to these triggers is that they are not compatible with Nikon's i-TTL system. This can be a down side for allot of people. But for me I could care less. These triggers seem to be well made. They are built better then allot of other Chinese junk out there. The plastics have a good fit and finish. All the components fit together nicely and the hot shoe and hot shoe mounts have good tight feel to them. Others have said the on/off switch is poorly placed, well I'd have to agree with them. Its not a big deal but its something that Youngnuo has improved on the updated version.
Oh and these will also work as a wireless and wired remote shutter! They work better then Nikon and Canon's clumsy infrared remote units. Basically all you do is take one RF-603 and mount it to your cameras hot shoe. Then take the supplied cord and plug one end into your camera and the other into the RF-603. Then turn on both the camera and the trigger. Now turn on your other RF-603, its now your cameras wireless remote. With these triggers you have a large button on the front. This button is used to both test the flash and to also be used as a wireless or wired remote shutter. Both units have a two stage button just like the cameras shutter button. So you can auto focus on your subject by half pressing the button and then a full press will release the shutter.
To use these units as a wired remote shutter all you have to do is just plug the included cable into your camera and plug the other side into your RF 603. Turn the camera and the trigger on and presto you now have wired remote shutter. But you have no way to lock the shutter button so you really can't use these for bulb mode.
If you have a Nikon D3100 which doesn't have an infrared sensor (WTF Nikon?) guess what you now have one with this setup plus a radio trigger for off camera flash photography.
So basically this set is three tools in one. A radio flash trigger and a wired / wireless remote shutter release.
The RF-603 N units themselves will work on all Nikon bodies ranging from the D70 till today's current bodies. I'm not sure about the D100 or D1 series.
However this particular set which includes the LS-2.5/N3 cord will NOT function as a wireless or wired remote shutter on the following bodies. D40,D40x,D60,D50,D70/s,D80,D3000,D200,D300/s and all the pro bodies. The old entry bodies don't have a socket to connect the remote shutter cord. The D70 also didn't have a remote shutter socket. The D70s and D80 used a different socket setup compared to the newer bodies. The D200 and D300/s used a ten pin terminal to connect a remote shutter.
This RF-603 N3 set will allow you to use these triggers as wireless/wired remote on the following current bodies.
The D3100,D3200,D3300, D5000 series,D7000 series, D90 and the D600/D610.
This is an affordable solution for those of you looking to trigger your camera remotely using a radio transmitter or fire off strobes, speedlights and/or flashes with a wireless transmitter.
This units a transceivers, which means they can act as transmitter or receiver.
One thing to keep in mind. I have tested this using a Nikon D7000 and a Nikon D90. I tested each camera independently with the following speedlights: Nikon SB-700, SB-800, SB-900. The speedlights fired every time. I also fired the camera remotely using the same setup.
I put one on the hot-shoe in the camera and another in the speedlight as normal. The funny thing is that if you connect the supplied wire from the camera to the transceiver when you press the shutter in the camera it fires the speedlight and vice versa. When you press the test button in the transceiver attached to the speedlight it fires the camera and the speedlight, you can't ask for more on this price range.
This setup is not TTL. You have no wireless control about the speedlight power from the camera. You have to set your speedlight to manual mode and adjust the power setting to whatever you need. This will fire the speedlight in sync to the highest sync speed of your camera. In the Nikon D7000 is 1/250, faster than that and you will get the expected black bar on the bottom of the frame if you are framed horizontally. That also means, of course, that it doesn't support FP High Speed Sync. All things I can live with because when I need one I typically don't need the other. I am still using the Nikon CLS but its nice to have this kind of range and capability if you need it for this price.
If you absolutely need this feature, go see Pocket Wizard they have your solution for $219-$199 a pop.
I got six of this puppies for all my speedlights and both my cameras. You can't beat it for the price.
If you are contemplating the possibility of buying one, go right ahead, you won't feel bad about it.
This is an awesome price for these capabilities. You have a PC connection and that gives you extra flexibility in case you want to hook them up to a strobe.
April 27, 2012 Update.
Hello all, this is an update to add a few things. These transceivers are still working great.
I have purchased the more advanced Pocket Wizard Flex TT5 flash triggers to my bag-o-tricks. I purchased three of them for now. I am not writing this here to brag but to tell you how you can still use these Yongnuo RF-603's along with the PW stuff.
**Why in the world would he want to do that? I know right, crazy talk? Keep reading!**
The PW Flex TT5 system has a drawback that has been well identified through out the several training videos in their website and others. The Flex system is not able to trigger the camera remotely while maintaining TTL communication between camera and flashes faster than one frame every two seconds. That may not be a problem for most people but I always try to work around tech problems even if they don't affect me now that way I have an answer for when it bites me in the future.
The way I did it was assembling the PW with camera and flashes as PW recommends and then when all of that was done and all gizmos were talking to each other I proceeded to hook up the Yongnuo receiver to the camera via the GPS port as usual. I left it dangling from the camera and used another Yongnuo transceiver to trigger. It worked flawlessly. It was triggering as fast as I wanted with no noticeable delays. Notice that I never hooked up the Yongnuo gear with the PW gear. They only way the Yongnuo transceiver is hooked up to the camera is by the N3 cable as recommended by Yongnuo. This way you have radio TTL remote flash triggering along with radio camera triggering.
Anyone worried about RF interference? Its a valid concern. I looked at both operating frequencies and the PW (FCC- USA Version) operates between 340-354 MHz, the Yongnuo RF-603 operates at 2.4 GHz. The amount of space in the RF spectrum is so far apart that unless the devices are physically touching each other, there should not be any interference or frequency drift. (This is my opinion and experience, this information has not been professionally tested in a lab under controlled conditons).
Benefits from this setup:
-Mainly, NO delay between shutter press and camera triggering.
-Radio triggering on both systems, no line of sight issues.
-You leave camera in tripod and flashes in light stands and keep your Yongnuo trigger in your hand while working in a studio or on location. It also means that you don't have to buy an expensive PW radio to just trigger your camera.
-If you drop your Yongnuo trigger and it breaks is about $37 for a pair as opposed to $200 or so for a PW Flex.
I tried this setup with a Nikon D700 and Nikon D7000 along side my speed lights: SB-700, SB-800 and SB-900. I also own Yongnuo YN-560 flashes (about $65 each) and I use them as kickers and trigger them with the built in optical slave. Yes, while all the Nikon flashes fire in TTL. The Yongnuo flashes have two modes for optical (main flash, and M2 where the flash ignores the TTL pre-flash).
Now, this is what I call harmony across my entire camera bag. I don't like bickering inside the camera bag while I sleep at night.
Jan 8, 2013 Update.
Works with the Nikon D600 too.
Enjoy,

Inoltre questi trigger possono svolgere la funzionalita' di scatto remoto utilissandolo proprio come un telecomando wireless.
Nella confenzione, (imballata egregiamente) troviamo anche i cavetti appositi per collegare i trigger ad un dispositivo senza l' utilizzo della slitta, magari gia' impegnata da altri accessori.
un altro punto a vantaggio di questi trigger Rf-603 n3 sono la compatibilita' con i flash più recenti Yognuo, in quanto alcuni di questi flash hanno integrato già un trigger, per tanto occorre l' utilizzo di un solo di questi trigger e non più due, io personalemnte uso questo prodotto con la mia Nikon D5100 e D810 e devo ammettere che funziona egregiamente.
Riassumendo questo rpodotto è molto valido se lo si accetta per quello che è, un prodotto lowcost, per chi si sta avvicinando alla fotografia lampista, con un rapporto qualita'/prezzo elevato.
E che dire se avete un flash yonguo di ultima generazzione (peresempio io uso un Yn 560 Mark 3) cosa state aspettando siete ancora li, compratelo.
I like their compact size and the fact they use standard AAA's rather than funny sized ones. Oh and not forgetting the fact it's the same unit for both transmitter and receiver.
However there are a couple of minor things which stop me from giving this a 5* rating.
1) The position of the on/off button makes it nearly impossible to toggle if you've mounted a flash. The flash head gets in the way and unless you have tiny fingers or a little stick, you can't switch it on/off.
2) There is no hotshoe lock. Now whilst it does sit fairly snugly on your camera's hotshoe, you can't put another flash on top then let it dangle from your strap. It may well fall off!
Both are fairly minor but at the same time would have been incredibly easy to fix.
En plus, ces télécommande peuvent servir de déclencheur d'appareil photo a distance moyennant un câble fournit avec. Attention cependant, lors de votre commande, à ne pas vous tromper dans le kit avec la référence du câble. J'ai fait cette erreur, j'ai commandé l'ensemble avec câble N3, alors que pour mon D80, il faut un N2. Je n'ai plus qu'a retrouver le bon câble qqpart

eseguito un breve test dopo l'acquisto con esito positivo
i due transceiver sono interscambiabili avendo integrata sia la funzione di trasmettitore che di ricevitore. come anticipato dalle recensioni in rete, una delle due slitte è entrata con più faciltà nell'innesto sopra il corpo macchina. essendo dispositivi wireless non è necessario che si "vedano": la comunicazione che è a 2.4 GHz è avvenuta anche con una parete di mezzo. nel vano batterie ci sono 4 switch, quindi sono possibili in teoria 16 canali di comunicazioni differenti nel caso in cui una frequenza dovesse essere "affolalta" e portare a problemi di comuncazione. nel mio caso è stato sufficiente lasciare la configurazione standard. collegando il cavetto in dotazione al corpo macchina, è possibile scattare premendo il pulsante su uno dei due transceiver. il pulsante permette di focheggiare effettuando la mezza pressione. l'interruttore dell'accensione è molto scomodo da azionare una volta montato il flash se questo è "panciuto". necessita di due ministilo in formato AAA per ciascun transceiver. NON E' supportato il TTL, quindi bisogna agire manualmente sul flash per regolare potenza, ecc.. per 30€ è un acquisto che consiglio anche se dati i materiali e i componenti utilizzati potrebbe costare di meno....
