Hi Everyone,
I,ve thought of connecting my 430 EX via the ttl lead and use in conjunction with 2 plus III and a 580 EXII
would I get ghosting due to the different models of flash.

Thankyou Alan.

No, but it's not clear how you'll trigger them from what you've said. You mean Pocket Wizard Plus IIIs? They're not TTL compatible.
 
Thankyou Phil, and Thankyou HoppyUK
I was hoping that connecting 1 plus III to one end of the ttl lead then connecting 1 flash via the sync lead that comes with the pocketwizard would work.

Im just trying to fire the flash off camera in a manual configuration because of only having the 2
flashes but they both need to be off camera this is the reason Im looking at this method.

Thankyou again Alan

Or, put the 580EXii on the TTL lead in Master/manual mode, and that will also control the 430EX in Slave. No need for the PWs.
 
I only wrote 2 words, Richard filled out the details.

Maybe not for this weekend, but a set of YN622s would improve the situation immeasurably,
 
I just checked them out they,ll be on a future shopping list.

Once again Thankyou very much for help. Alan.
