B800 and Speedlight 420EX

[dettro]

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

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.
