Cactus V6, RF60 and other studio flash
in V6 Questions
Hi,
I have 2 Cactus RF60 and a Cactus V6. Amazing products :-)
Now, I want to buy a studio flash, like Walimex VE-400, Walimex VC-400, Metz BL-400 or similar.
It's possible to do this configuration?
Cactus V6 attached to the camera as usual. RF60 triggered as usual. But, connecting a sync cable (3.5mm) from the V6 to the studio flash, when I shoot the camera it will trigger the three flashes?
Regards,
Tim

I don't see any problem to trigger those three flashes at the same time. The V6 Rx units should receive the x-sync signal from the Tx unit and trigger through the hotshoe or 3.5mm sync cable at the same time.

Tim, the V6 will trigger studio lights but cannot (in my experience, Bowens, Interfit and Elinchrom) remotely control the power. You could save some money and use V5 triggers on the strobes.
You'd also need a sync cable to fit the V6 and this adapter (3.5mm at both ends).
I guess this would work but I'm not a 100% sure as I don't know the Novotron 550. Does it have a "sync" connector that would fit the adapter I linked to?
