jacull Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 I'm considering cutting down my location lighting kit by replacing it with <br> 580s. I borrowed a few from a friend to see how it might work out and, <br>I'm sure it's just lack of knowledge, but I couldn't seem to control each <br>flash individually.<br><br> I set one on my camera as the master set to manual. The slave unit was off <br>camera, also set to manual. I wanted to be able to just dial power up or down <br>individually for each unit, but the slave would always automatically go <br>to whatever power the master was set to. Is there a way to get around this?<br><br> Thanks for your time,<br> JC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacull Posted November 8, 2006 Author Share Posted November 8, 2006 I'm also interested if anyone knows what type of cords/adapters I would need to attach Pocket Wizards to each unit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark u Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 Did you follow the instructions on p 42 of the manual? http://www.eosdoc.com/manuals/?q=580EX* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacull Posted November 9, 2006 Author Share Posted November 9, 2006 Hmm... didn't know that I could access a manual online. Thanks for the link! JC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savas_kyprianides Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 That information is also in the printed booklet that came with your flash unit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
