questions! ok, first off, will this product work with multiple flashes at once?

Yes you can use more than one flash per unit. But you must get a special Y-sync cable so it connects to two flashes at once. Easily done with that cable.

no. the viewfinder plugs into the same slot as the flash, so they can't be used at the same time

I think you need at least 2 lights and 3 would be better. A fill light for the front, Back light behind the subjects and a light to highlight. One light may work in conjunction with a flash but I haven't tried that. Whatever you use, test it in light like you will encounter at the shoot.

yes you can. there are two yes you can. there are two "outlets". just plug each flash in the outlets and you're ready to go.

I see no reason why it wouldn't work. All it does is send a trigger to fire off the flash. I have used it on different speed lights in the past that were not listed in its compatibility description. It's small and convenient to use.

This flash work in master mode?, or only in slave mode? i have a nikon d3200. In the future i like work with 2 flashes master and slave maybe. thanks

Yes you can choose 3 fast flashes. There are many options. I have mine set to flash six times fast and then six times slow and then steady on as long as I leave my foot on the brake. Programming does take a bit of time, but it is not that bad. I have changed my setup three times after living with them for awhile until I found the combination I liked.

It does flash in a sequence like other light shows. The 6 outputs are synched but not by high notes/low notes. I used it with 6 sets of lights on a Christmas Tree and used the music from my phone (the pre-set songs are very good as well) and really enjoyed it. It actually worked better than I had figured it would. I'm not sure if this is set up to do a whole house but could definitely do a small to medium section.

All of the Coyboystudio 4-channel units work together. That being they only trigger flash units. They do not vary the output of dedicated speed lights. I use mine to fire studio strobes and they do a great job. They will fire speedlights just as well but in manual mode.Oh, and despite that James said, mine are very reliable and work incredibly well for such an inexpensive system.

since they are triggered by flash as well, should be no issue adding additional strobes. you just need to be sure that you have reflectors or objects that can pick up the light from other flashes from behind the additional strobes to trigger them.

Nope, the remote flashes are sync only - fire signal only. Whatever setting they are set to they will fire, must change them manually on flash. The transmitter on the camera is ETTL hotshoe, so that might work for that one (maybe), but not the others.

Hi there -- this may be irrelevant, but they're asking me to communicate. I never used Canon, bought this slave to enable me to use auxiliary flash with a Fuji 3D camera. The idea is this: Most today's hi-tech flashes emit a series of light impulses to pre-evaluate the scene, the pop responsible for actual exposure (when the shutter opens) being the last one. To use an external slave flash you need either turn off all camera's pre-flashes (switch it to 'dumb' mode -- impossible with my Fuji) or use a slave that will ignore pre-flashes, such as this unit. That's why I bought it and it works for me. Try to read the manual for your Canon and see what your options are. It always helps to have a clear understanding what goes on. Cheers! M.B.

Yes, it work with all flash that will fit in the shoe, you have to set the switches to work with one or two flashes. Try setting one first once you have that one working the second should be easy.

I purchased the flash, but I have not used it yet. Sorry, I can't help. Jim K

Yes you will but you might be able to get by with less if your speedlights have optical triggers and can see each other. This way if one goes off the rest will see the flash of light and go off as well. This has its disadvantages but if you can not afford 5 at once this will work especially if you are in a studio environment. Outdoors or long distances might pose issues. I would save up until you get 5 of them especially if you will be using these on paid gigs.

You would need two. One to act as a transmitter and one as the receiver. The unit can act as either one but not as both at the same time of course. Make sure you get the correct flash sync cable for your flash. http://www.pocketwizard.com/products/cable_accessory/flash_sync_cables/

It's really easy of you havE a remote: one connects to the hot show of the camera an the other connects to the sync port of the strobe flash: however I have noticed the strobes are " slave " flashes.... So when it detects a flash I. The room, the strobes will fire
