I guess what I'm really trying to figure out is how David (hello David?) fired his 3 unit off camera. You could do so using a 4th SB-800 but then you're $1200 into strobes.AnthonyCollinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05946600806683951889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20182596.post-13743518576297020012008-06-23T15:04:00.000-06:002008-06-23T15:04:00.000-06:00Anthony, what you say about the D200 and it´s inte...Anthony, what you say about the D200 and it´s internal flash is wrong.

So for a set-up like David has here I'm gonna use the 10' SC-27 to the first off camera flash in the softbox: That will be the Master. Then I'll CLS the other 2. Let me know what you think.

The flashes where fired using the CLS system build into the Nikon system.<BR/><BR/>SU-4 sync is a slave setting of sorts, it allows the flash to fire when it receives a flash impulse from another flash. I'm pretty sure that setting an SB-800 to the SU-4 setting would "not sync" at higher speeds than normal sync speeds.David Tejadahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12409746127386558981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20182596.post-19501419281313799352008-06-18T05:56:00.000-06:002008-06-18T05:56:00.000-06:00The SU-4 syncs to 1/6400?
