walter_strong5 Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 <p>Currently I'm using a 550 EX with a 40D and I'd like to put a slave on a light stand. What slave and accessories would I need to do that?</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisjb Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 <p>You don`t say what for or the envirement shootin in? personally if you`re happy with 550ex, just get another 550ex. This will give the versatility of even flash, changing main and fill around, and more even recycle times. Either used for master/slave setups, I use 580/2`s and a 430, but don`t use the 550`s with them as recycle is slower on the 550`s. You could use umbrella softboxes, fong tupperware or just simple bounce cards. All depends what you want the flashes for. Even on small 8 foot stands I use the lil attachment that came with the flashes. the lil stands have a bush on bottom and I`ve had no probs with flashes falling. :-)</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
