Unless you are using 2 remote flashes, does it make sense to buy 2 SB700's? Because the price is fairly close.

If you buy 2 SB-700, you will find it more weight on camera and more reason SU-800 can control 3 units but SB-700 control just 2 groups. For me, i use SU-800 control 3 Nikon flashs. Hope my answer can help you.

You can remote 1 (one) flash without it, but if you use two or three flashes, it is required. Hope this helped.

Not sure what you are asking? The 800 module can control many flashes, including the 700 flash. All together or independently within the 800 module's program parameters. If your camera cannot send signals to your flash, except by the flash shoe on the camera body, and you want to have off camera flash locations, right side, left side, or behind subject, then you must have the 800 command module (which creates no flash at all) in order to use multiple or off camera flashes. Nikon's web site has good info regarding subject. Both products are fantastic quality and the IR signal path (instead of radio) hasn't failed me yet, indoors or out Not sure what you are asking?

Since I don't have an SB-26 I can't be 100% sure, but it works on my SB-25. I think the SB-25 and SB-26 are the same flash except that the SB-26 includes the delay mode and an optical slave. That delay mode sounds pretty cool if you mix TTL and non-TTL, though I have to imagine you sacrifice sync speed at high-power settings. If you have the time, let us know what you think of it.

Yes, I shoot with a D600 and 2 SB-700s and they work perfectly. Very seldom miss fire if set up correctly. I purchased 4 of them. I place 1 on my camera, 1 on both flashes and use the 4th as a wireless trigger. They also work well with my strobes. You can't go wrong for the price.

I have SB 700 & D7000 and the system works flawlessly ! I see no reason why SB600 would not work too. Love the photoxOdin TTL I dont own a pocket wizard but i think these are better

No, you can only fire one flash per device. However, if you have slave capabilities on your flash you can use that instead of using a trigger.

They are transceivers, so one would go on your camera as a transmitter and you would have 3 as receivers on flashes.You can purchase them as 1, 2 and 4 packs. About 40 for 1, 80 for 2 and 160 for 4.

Actually, I have done it. If the 430EXii is in slave mode and the red part of the flash is pointed towards any other flash, the 430EXii will fire if the original flash is powerful/close enough. Happy shooting.

I think I read that three can be piggy backed in series. I just got mine installed and they are nice and bright. More options with the remote than I will ever use.

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.

You can do that ! You will need 3 units total. One for the camera as a transmitter and two as receivers. You can do what I did and order 2 sets of 2 giving you four. The three that you need and one backup !Good luck with your off camera flash !Alan

I would use any small flash and het a slave unit that attaches to the hotshoe end of the flash. Basically sensing the TX1's flash, it fires the other flash as a slave.

You can mount your remote triggers onto the other slots. I suppose you could use them for other flash but it would be a bit unstable.

Yes. I have d 7000 and sb 600 and it supported them just fine. B e careful where the flash attaches and make sure you have it tightened properly r it could fall off when rotated down without being guided.

I have a D7000 and these work great. But you should be able to trigger the Alien Bee with just the flash.

If you want to fire two strobes you need 3 of these units. One for each strobe and one on the camera. Since they come in pairs you would have a spare as well. You just need to make sure they are all set to the same channel (4 little switches). I used them to fire 2 speedlites and one Alien Bee strobe on a portrait shoot. Worked great.

I have the 5100 and the sb700. To be honest, the Cactus V4s seem to work better with my cheapie yongnuos than the 700. They work, but reliability is not great.

You can set each one if this triggers as you like to, if you want to have one as transmitter the rest if them have to be set as receivers and they will trigger the flash, hope this help I have 3 and I use one as a master the other 2 as slaves and I can have a set up of 3 lights using the one in camera if I need to and 2 off camera flashes with the other 2 set up as a receivers.
