    B800 and Speedlight 420EX
    I have a Digital Rebel, B800 and 420EX and would like to set it up to work together. Any suggestions? :confused:

    The 420 can trigger the B800 with it's flash as long as the 420 is set on manual. If it's not set on manual the rpe-flash will set off the B800 before the shot is actually taken and you won't get the light from the Bee in the shot.

    What I would do is get a Wein infrared trigger for the flash, pop the transmitter in the hotshoe, and let the 420 fire the Bee.
