You can get a wireless slave unit for under $50 (I would guess under $30), so with about $300 you may get two slaves, two good flashes and two stands. May I add (a bit shy), that I am somewhat used to work with "student-class" projects (zero-budget) and I use balloons on top of the flash so they diffuse light. It works fine for most purposes, just be sure they don't obstruct any sensors, or use the flash in manual mode. You will have to play a bit with your new setup to "get the hang" with the new levels of light, since the camera most likely cannot account for it in any way.
