Richard,
Wow - thanks! looks just like my set-up. I'll keep
fooling around with
it. And report back.

One thing I forgot to mention in the article. When photographing
events where other people are popping their flashes, you need to
cover the Wein Slave with your hand when not shooting. Otherwise,
every time someone pops their flash, yours will go off too, draining
the battery. Probably better to use a radio slave, like Pocket
Wizard, in those situations.

Lots of fun when the slaved flashes are clamped somewhere that you
can't reach and had set up beforehand.
