The flash has to be mounted to the camera (or connected via cable) to work at all. The SB function does not operate when the flash is electrically disconnected from the body. With a cable connected flash off-camera, you'd have to manually aim the SB correctly for the camera to 'see' it."The AF spotbeam on the flash unit works accurately only when mounted onto the camera's hotshoe."
But that's all for the wimps..... ME I just use one of these

Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.
