[QUOTE="WayneF, post: 611169, member: 12496"] I have the YN565EX, and it does support the Nikon Commander. Not familiar with the Sigma, but I doubt it does. But the Yongnuo and I think also the Sigma have the optical slave mode, which will work great in the living room, so all you need is some umbrellas. You can trigger both of their slaves with the camera internal flash set to Manual mode at lowest power. Lowest power will not affect your picture lighting, assuming low ISO, shutter speed near maximum sync speed (1/200 second) to exclude room ambient, and the picture exposure about f/5.6 or f/8. A test picture at that exposure, with all flashes turned off, with only the internal flash at lowest manual power, will be very near totally black to verify it has no effect. [/QUOTE]
