Hey guys. I need to trigger 2 FL50 flash for a photoshoot. But the 2 flash will be away from my camera, only about max 5 metre away. Any device that i need to get to make this possible?

How about a long wire connected to the middle and the side contact? Cheap and working. TTL is useless anyway.

You can also use slave triggers, one on each flash and trigger with your camera's pop-up if you have one or a small, weak and cheap external placed on your hot shoe.

The most exclusive solution is a radio trigger but that is not cheap...

Im going for the wireless, because of mobility and obstruction free. Wont be using ttl mode, manual mode will be good. Now, im just waiting for PQ23 to reply me on the compatibality issue for the radio trigger im thinking of buying soon.
