Finally after 2 years, I was able to get a solid shot of lightning. Using the motion detect in Magic Lantern. Set by exposure simulation.

Nice! For daytime lightning photography check out gg30 and mk11147s bolt trigger module:

Awesome! I will have to try this out on my next ML Adventure :D
Out of curiosity will this bolt trigger work for 60D. I read the comments and it looks like 5D mkIII and 600D are what it workds for at the moment.
