Thanks Dave,
Yes, next time I set up lights I'll try it with cable. I suspect that it is the trigger, as I understand some are faster than others. Flash spec says 1/1000 for duration so it's plainly a delay problem.

Having said all that the 5D manual, and 40D for that matter both advise 1/30-1/60 for studio flash! That's not my experience with 40D, where, as you point out, it can go up to 1/160: 1/125 @ f8 though gives best results.

Thanks for taking the time to reply - much appreciated!
