[QUOTE="AudiSportB5S4, post: 79835, member: 10958"] Hi there, I'm looking to take the pictures to the next level and I'm trying to see where the limits of this camera are. I've come to find out the past few days that if I want to shoot a picture with an off-camera flash I need some extra tools and maybe some tricks also. I'll just ask, what is the best way to accomplish this? Obviously I'd love to have a remote trigger, I've looked into Pocket Wizards. If this is the only way then I'm fine spending the money because I'm sure I can use that device on later bodies that I get from Nikon. I'm going to get a SB700 when the time comes later this year, and I know I'll be okay shooting with it attached to the camera itself, but as a remote I want to do certain shots that require lighting from various angles. I've found Pocket Wizards is roughly a ~500 dollar setup, correct me if I'm wrong. You need the hot shoe guy that connects @ the top, and then the receiver that you can attach to the SB700? I'm open to corded triggers, if that cord can be long. [/QUOTE]
