Ok I just ordered a couple AB800's and I already have a couple Nikon SB600's. I am planning to use the SB600's for the hairlight and background light. What will be the easiset way to fire all these at once?

Thanks,
Tom

I dont recall if the SB600's have the SU-4 mode (I am thinking not), but if it does, you can set it, and it will act as a basic slave eye, just like the ones on the AB's. If not, you will need an accessory for the foot of the flash. You can:

A) buy a foot mount optical slave (available at FlashZebra.com),
or
B) Use the CyberSync system and connect the receiver to the speedlite with our SLFA (in the Hardware> Parts and Accessories section).

SB-600 does not have an optical trigger. Cheapest way to use for hair light would be to put an optical trigger on it and use flash in manual mode. Optical triggers work very well indoors.
