The cheapest way to creat off camera flash (under $20)

I found this on Amazon. Looks like it works. But it has to be attached to a cord. However,  the ETTL function of flash is retained.
The best thing is, it only cost $17.75!

Now, you can put your flash to the side or with an angle with or without umbrella and let it shine your subjects at any angle without the expensive PocketWizard.

Of course, you will need to be very careful of not letting anyone (including yourself) trip your cord and eventually knock down the flash light.

I believe there is a version for Nikon flash light too. Google it.

    I just finished buying a 30 foot ettl cord, its uncoiled, so it stretches farther. I tried it on a photo shoot in a grassy field the other day. Works well as long as there is an assistant to keep the cord from tangling.
