I recently took a workshop from my local photo club where the workshop instructor
suggested he used a really old flash to light his backgrounds. It apparently was
activated just by the flash light of his main flash and not by any fancy wireless activity.


Right now I only have a single 550EX to use with my 10D. I was thinking that I might be able to get some reasonable results by using the on camera flash to activate the 550EX off camera on its own tripod. I have the hot shoe cord but it doesn't reach very far.

Anyone know if the 550EX can be made to activate itself when it detects other flashes going off? I can't find anything about that in the manual.

Thanks for any input!
