Slave Flash Kit
February 20th, 2007
Best entry remote flash photography kit for Skating and BMX?
I want to get into shooting photos of skaters or BMXers at night or indoor skateparks with poor lighting. I know there are some slave lights out there, but i dont know where to start. I want to be able to have flashes go off from multiple angles when i shoot.
Cheapest Way: Wein Peanut Slave will fire any non-dedicated flash unit:

Coolest Way: Nikon’s Creative Lighting System is wirelessly controlled by camera:

Hope this helps.
