revhappy Offline • • Upload & Sell: Off p.1 #1 · Best way to trigger two Nikon TTL flashes? I recently picked up a TTL off camera flash sync cord (Vivitar SC-28 style) to experiment with high speed sync. I like using the flash with a diffuser but hate how inconsistent CLS can be if the sensor isn't in sight because of the umbrella or soft box blocking the path. I shot this at 1/640 @ f/1.8 with a CPL on top of the lens and the flash on manual mode at full power. Afterwards I wanted to do a few shots and underexpose the background but a diffused flash wasn't nearly strong enough. I have another SB800 I can use, but I'm wondering what the least expensive way would be to get them both to fire consistently, preferably wired. Thanks! Mar 06, 2013 at 07:28 AM

If they're right together then a long cord plus using the corded one in commander mode to fire the other one. When they're so close together and into a modifier that will bounce that flash around some it shouldn't be a problem IMO. brad Mar 06, 2013 at 02:16 PM

In fact, I have a 24-foot ETTL cable that I can put my Master Speedlite on to get it well away from the camera, whether in a soft box or not, and still control other Speedlites.
