How will D500 do Commander Mode with no built-in flash?

[QUOTE="GracieAllen, post: 526002, member: 41283"] I've got a D300, D810, and D7200. All have built-in flashes. I've never used ANY of them to take flash images, but I DO use Commander Mode regularly to trigger 1 or more SB flashes wirelessly when doing close-up photography. The ability to adjust flash exposure from the camera menu makes life easier. As I understand it, the trigger for the flash is the built-in camera flash, but the settings are communicated wirelessly from the camera to the flash(es) to get the exposure correct. Since the D500 doesn't HAVE an internal flash, will it incorporate Commander Mode? And if so, how will it trigger the SB flashes? Can I just use one of those inexpensive hot-shoe slave trigger flashes? [/QUOTE]
