Question about Nikon CLS

[joshodonnell]

Hi folks... I currently own a single SB-800 flash unit and use it with my

D50. I am wanting to purchase a few more flash units to expand my off-camera

lighting possibilities... Right now I'm leaning towards three SB-600 flash

units which I can get for less than the price of two SB-800. This is my

question... Will I be able to wirelessly control the settings on the SB-600

flashes when using my SB-800 as a commander? Also, is it possible to seperate

the SB-600 flashes into groups and adjust each group seperately? I know it's

possible to do so wirelessly with SB-800 flashes that are off camera and I

assume it's possible with the SB-600 flashes as well, but I want to make

sure! Thanks for any input.

Yes, your plan will work fine.

[chris_vincent2]

Yes and yes.

 

I now use the SU-800 as a commander as it suits my purpose better, but the set-up you describe will do what you want.
