Some type of AF-assist that I can put on my flash shoe?
I know I can do this with my flash, but I want something smaller.

Macs are A solution, not THE solution. Get a good desktop i7 with Windows 7 and come tell me that sucks for photo or video editing.

Not sure what the question is but if I'm understanding your question correctly, the ST-E2 can control all EX flashes that can be set as slaves. ...Leo
