    A question for you fellow photo fellas.

    Well, I photo friend offered to help me out with three Canon 430ex IIs that he is no longer using.

    I have a Nikon D3200.

    He offered that I can simply have them if I can get them to work.
    I thought I had figured out a way that I could get them to work as off body flashes but now I am having my doubts.

    Is there a remote I can use? An IR trigger?

    Thanks in advance!

    Just get some remote triggers. I use a 430ex off my canon rig with my Nikon d7000 all the time. You have to use it in manual, of course. I have a set of the phottix stratos II for the wireless trigger.

    That looks about like what I was looking for. Guess I was using the wrong terms or my google-fu is weak.

    I would need a Nikon one, since it sits on the camera correct? Or a Canon one since that's the brand of flash?
