Steve have you looked to see if your existing flash has a Wireless Flash Trigger for your camera? Probably would be the best option and likely the most cost effective.

Is that flash you have a 'dedicated flash'? If yes I definitely go the routes of the wireless trigger for your flash. If not, are you considering the purchase of a dedicated flash? Better to keep the whole system 'dedicated' IMO

The cheapest option would be a simple wireless 'slave', but I think you want something better than those cheap-as-chips little units

perfect Peter, just placed the order with another supplier for an extra few pence and its coming from london, so only a few days rather then a week or so,
That will give me time to get it working and getting use to it,
Wow another present for me
Thanks again Peter :xxgrinning--00xx3:
