Samsung NX11 flash trigger compatibility - within the UK

Hello all, I'm long time member and lurker but this one has me entirely stumped!

Last week I was the proud owner of a Samsung NX11, it seemed like a lovely camera. The trouble is that I use studio lights (I take pictures in a local auction house) and I could not get any radio trigger I had to work with it.

I then read about the proprietary hotshoe configuration and how it has caused many people problems. The shop I bought it from were helpful to a point - selling me a Hahnel "canon" radio trigger. Whist this worked, it was not satisfactory, every time the camera went to sleep, or was turned off it would loose its connection to the trigger and I had to go through a laborious process of button pushing on the Hahnel trigger to get it to work. This was a PITA and inconsistent. The camera went back to the shop...

SO... the Hahnel trigger doesn't really work on the NX11 - some people had cited that it worked well. My experience would suggest differently.

Does anyone have a definitive answer for a compatible radio trigger. Most importantly it needs to be reasonably priced (not a pocket wizard) and available in the UK.

Please could someone help me out? Pretty please!

Samsung NX11
