Roulston 0 Posted August 3, 2005 I am sure this may have asked and answered previously, but I can not find it. What are thew pro's and con's of using dual sync'd strobes versus one sync'd and a slave? Assuming non-TTl use I would have thought for the budget consiceous the use of slave gets the photons painted on the scene without the dual sync cost and issues?

kdietz 0 Posted August 3, 2005 Hi Tony.....welcome to Wetpixel With the slave option, your strobe can be triggered by another photographer.....can be very irritating for you and for the other guys <_< Karl Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scubaboy1 0 Posted August 3, 2005 Hi, I am shooting 2 SB105's with a D70 in an Ikelite housing. I tried the shooting with 1 synch and 1 slave. I was getting inconsistent results. Sometimes the slave wasn't firing. I had a diffuser on both strobes ... not sure if that was interfering with the sensor or not. At any rate, the uncertainty was enough to make me buy a dual synch cord to eliminate the problem. Happy Shooting B) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
