Since the flash is behind the white diffuser cloth, would it work with the Nikon SB900's master-slave mode from the built-in flash, and not a radio trigger like Pocket Wizard?

I magine not, since you need line of sight for master-slave. I will try it, though, and let you know.

Tried with Nikon flash. The LS can work in remote slave mode, so if your flash goes then LS fires too.

This will definitely work on slave mode but I am not sure about hot shoe if it will work because different cameras have different size of hot shoe. I am using nikon d3200 both are working. For the price and quality pictures, this speed light flash is a steal.

Yes it does. But I notice on my D300 that it may inter-fear with by camera electronics. Then shooting a wedding there were a few times my camera locked up and I had to shut it down then restart it to go back to normal. I recommend that you spend a little more and get Pocket Wizard. Plus there is no button to test fire the studio flash.

This flash works great with my Nikons. I don't have Yongnuo flash triggers, but the flash works just fine with my Pixel King triggers.

i use these with a nikon d90 camera. the flashes i use is a sb900 and a sb700. i have used a couple of times and feel very comfortable. i have not used with off brand flashes. they do have on and off switches on top which are difficult to flip when flashes are attached. so you have to take flashes off then turn off or on. i will purchase another set hoping i can use with 2 remote flashe, along with my master flash on my camera.. hope this helps

I don't think so, it's a radio trigger only, your flash is an infrared rcvr only. You can use the ST-E2 transmitter, which is an IR transmitter

It does work with my radio trigger, there is a bit of a wait time to recycle the charge. the higher the flash the more the wait.

Yes, the SB900 flash works very well with the D800 camera. That is the exact set up that I use and I love it.

The PW's are transceivers, and will act both as a trigger and a slave. Attach one to the hotshoe of your D90 in receiver mode and another one to your SB700 off camera also in receiver mode, and a third will be used to trigger in your hand in transmit mode. If you only have two, then one is on your D90 in transmit mode and the other on your SB700 in receive mode. When you use your camera's shutter release button to fire your camera, it will use the PW to trigger the PW on your SB700.Hope that answers your question.

There is another option with this strobe. The flash will trigger from either another strobe/flash or an infrared trigger. A lot of cameras (mine included) has the ability to flash with infrared light so there is no attached light in the image. The flashes are triggered by that light when in slave mode. In simplest terms, if the flash is wired to the camera, it is a master. If it is off camera, it is a slave unit, regardless of what triggering method used.

I use mine as a slave flash so the answer would be yes. You do need a slave adapter to use as the trigger, attached to the base of the flash. They are inexpensive to purchase.

Yes, it is probably more useful as a slave light than as a main flash. Honestly I thought it was a piece of junk and sold it to someone for 50 bucks, he was not happy with it and wanted to return it to me. It really just does not work well with the more advanced Nikons. It does not seem to react as fast as the camera.

Yes, I have used the SB-700 in studio wirelessly with the D-90... works fabulous ! It will work wirelessly on all Nikon DSLR's.... have tried it with entry level models up to the beastly D800. Hopes this helps...it is a great flash !

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.
