I didn\'t realize this thread had anything to do with how to trigger the flash.... I thought it was about recycle time and how to know when they\'re ready to fire


I always try to add value and don\'t see your name on the moderator list and you didn\'t ask the question so how is my reply your concern anyway

If you use the Canon system the AF assist light on the Slave blinks as a ready light. Fire the flash and it goes out. When you see it blinking again you know it is recharged. It operates that way because the small ready indicator (pilot light in Canon-speak) isn\'t visible with the front of the slave where the sensor is points at the master on the camera.

On the Vivitars there is a red/green ready status light on the back.
