Does anyone know of a trigger thats not built into a flash (i.e. 600ex) that can change the power on the fly of a compatible off camera flash?

Seeing if theres a possibility i can do a wireless flash setup with my olympus omd since they dont have a flash like a 600ex where i can control OCF power remotely.

I didn't know they were compatible with Olympus. Good to know.

I had to research that myself at first, because I was worried they were Canon/Nikon only also. I have the same trigger, and four 560 III's and the system works flawlessly, at least for me and my needs.
