If you use a Cactus LV5 as the laser trigger, it could trigger two Cactus V5 receivers (one for each camera) directly via radio.

Dangit. I didn't even think to look at Cactus. I thought they were only flash triggers, not camera triggers.

They all are (V5, V6, V6II). You just need a cable (3.5mm stereo to 2.5mm stereo <- cheap) to connect them to the camera.
