I use the nx210 with Yongnuo RF-603n triggers and YN-560 II's. One important thing to note is that on my nx210 I have to slide the trigger back slightly in order for proper contact to be made. I can't speak for other triggers but what I use now works very reliably.

As for front & rear curtain control I haven't tried that but I would assume it would work just fine. I will test it and post back in this thread on my results.

I got the triggers and they work the same on the NX300 as on your NX210, I have to pull back just a tad to make it work.

As for the front and rear curtain control: it does not work since the camera does not senses that there is a trigger connected. I do not know why is that the NX300 doesn't recognize any off-brand flash or flash trigger connected to the hotshoe. Is this a firmware or a hardware problem?

Otherwise it works consistently for every shot. If I dial the flash power down to 1/8 power I can shoot in normal continuous drive mode, which is 5 fps RAW files and get the flash triggered in each frame. That's great!

The only problem is that when attached to the hotshoe and using the 18-200mm lens, the zoom ring touches the trigger and makes some annoying noise that freaks me out
