How to use Canon Speedlights with multiple flashes

Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

One of the questions I get most of on how to use off camera lighting.
I have posted various lighting tutorials and info and you can browse through some of them in this category:

But today I ran across a really great video that I think many of you will love. If you have some time to learn sit back and watch this video, its very long (almost 2 hours) and the video itself is from a lighting seminar at B&H photo so not a glamorous on location production video but packed with very useful stuff. It’s from Syl Arena who is a great teacher of photo lighting. A little more about the video:

In this Canon-specific workshop, you will learn the how and why of using multiple Speedlites off-camera. Our emphasis will be on the wireless system built into Canon Speedlites. We will explore all the settings on both the master and slave Speedlites.
