Fellow sifus, I need some help notworthy.gif notworthy.gif

I have a SB700. I was wondering whether there's any way to fire the flash if I am using a compact camera (different brand) with a built-in flash? There should be a pre-flash trigger thing right? I was wondering whether sifus can give some info on how to use it?

Thanks in advance notworthy.gif notworthy.gif

I think u can sell 3200 d..get a lens from there. Cz d600 nt heavy one.so no use keeping 3200..
50mm 1.8 not just a few stops from 2.8 leh. Quite a lot difference u can save a lot of iso. N bokeh can't fight with it too..

Thanks for the input sifu notworthy.gif
I never really find the need to lower ISO with flash haha.. at least not at the moment... and I kind of prefer the bokeh of the 24-70 at 70mm F2.8 drool.gif
The one reason I am not willing to let go of my trusted 50mm is its light weight wub.gif

sb 700 as slave?

Sorry if noob question haha, but is it possible to trigger the SB700 by just a pre-flash from any camera? I think I did saw something like that in one of the videos by Digitalrev TV where the sifu use even noob camera to trigger flashes hmm.gif

I only know how to use it with the D90 and D800... Not sure how it works with other camera..

I guess can say the SB700 is the slave lol, but who is the "commander"? lol

Thanks again notworthy.gif

Flash trigger system like the ones from Yongnuo?

I think its something like that haha laugh.gif
The SB700 cannot?
I tried Googling but the thing is I don't even know how to ask the question doh.gif
I just feel it will be great to be able to bring the SB700 out with some other camera that's not that heavy, especially on non-important occasions laugh.gif

Thanks for the compliment mate! The photos are only nice because of the enthusiasm of those students haha, very energetic lot!
The shot is taken at the new Examination Building. There is a huge corridor at the centre which is very good for photos because its pretty empty, and the paint is new thumbup.gif

But I think students with 1st class honours can also opt for conversion from loan to scholarship.
Some of my friends who are very brave cheated and applied for both JPA and PTPTN and noneed to pay back for both vmad.gif

Sorry for off topic.

I can't wait to try out SU-4 (Why they always use this kind of weird names, hard to keep up haha)

For SU-4 mode it will activate according ANY flash it detects. So preflash will cause it to trigger as well. better switch off any preflash from the compact.

Thanks for the input sifu! notworthy.gif
Pretty amazing how this SU-4 works, especially the syncing part haha... Will try it out tomorrow rclxms.gif
Compact cameras got pre-flash one? Dunno much about compacts
