Wireless Transmitter Flash

What options are there for Canon wireless flash.?
I have a 400D with a Jessops flashgun. I saw someone at a gig with the same set up except they had a wireless transmitter so they could hold the flash gun at arms length to get better shadows etc. But I cant seem to find one. If there is a cheaper alternative to a canon one that would be nice!
I believe with the Canon STE2 you maintain full eTTL capabilities – which means your flash is “smart” and feeds information back and forth with the 400D.
Non-dedicated wireless has really grown in the last couple of years. Pocket Wizards have long been known as the most reliable (and expensive) equipment. Paul C Buff (AlienBees in the US) has an excellent line that is less expensive.
You also now have very inexpensive (and less reliable) equipment coming in from China. Check Ebay for some, or this web site:

The non-dedicated wireless requires you to use your flash in manual mode – where you set the power level (1, 1/2, 1/4, etc). If you have the Jessops 360AFD it looks like it has manual.
The best place to find out a little more about off-camera flashes is the strobist site. Lots and lots of free information to read before you make your mind up.

Good luck!
