[QUOTE="akamii, post: 316654, member: 26249"] Hello I use a D7000 with a Nikon SB-600 in Commander mode. All works great. I was given a mini slave cell which will trigger a flash when it senses another flash. Great I thought. I bought a cheap (£2 cheap in a bargain bucket!) Jessops flash with a cable. No idea what camera it is for, but as I wasn't using it on camera, I wasn't bothered. Today, for the first time, I set the SB-600 up with Commander mode on the D7000. The Jessops flash was using the mini slave cell. A cheap option for a 2nd flash me thinks. Not likely, says the SB-600. As soon as the Jessops flash is on, the SB-600 has a fit, and does a siren type noise and refuses to play! I'm guessing it's being upset by the camera pop up flash, which by the way I set to do not fire. As soon as the Jessops flash is turned off, all works fine. Confuses me, as the Jessops flash is not connected to the SB-600 or the D7000 - only the mini slave cell. Bang goes my great money saving idea - unless anyone has any thoughts? Thanks :confused: [/QUOTE]
