Hello,

Q: when using a radio trigger (non-ttl, manual only)
can I mix brands of flashes? (Canon / Metz-Nikon)

I have two Canon flashes, and can get (borrow, etc)
some Nikon flashes.

thanks!

Yes. The only communication is the fire signal so you can attach any strobe to it.

My Metz 58 AF-2 worked flawlessly as a "slave" to my 580 EX II. It cannot be a master.
