As the title suggests, Does anyone know if someone makes a TTL lead that allows you to keep using your on-camera hotshoe while having another flash attached to the lead?
I was thinking of trying a two flash setup but I really don't have the money to invest in wireless master/slave flashes, Ideally it would just have a female hotshoe ontop of the male end as well as the female.
Would there be any issues with such a design? If not and if i cant find one I'll probably just end up building one.
Stephen.

If you are going to have one flash on the camera hot shoe just buy a cheap set of radio triggers off of ebay. You can use the sync port and cord and hook up the second flash that way. I have done it a few times for product shots when I need a bit of fill flash from the front, worked well for me.

Exactly like that, thank you very much. Guess I just hadn't been typing the right things into ebay.
Also Flashzebra looks like a rather interesting website. Thanks for the help guys.
