Built in flash has died...

That'll do fine.
I use the Interfit Studio Flash Transmitter - same thing, but it might be worth checking out the Jessops price for that.
Jessops also have some fairly basic but inexpensive studio flash kits that will certainly do the job. They aren't powerful flash units, but work for a small studio.

In the studio, it's much simpler than all that info exchange.
Fire flashes and measure using flashmeter. F11 or whatever it is. Set on camera. Take pictures. In those circumstances there's no need for all the gizmos, so it really I suppose depends on what the photographer is doing and how.
Are there any inexpensive studio flash units about, that would do for a home studio? I'm thinking of getting a big piece of black cloth, suspending it from the picture rail, and moving furniture about. To start with, one flash and a reflector would probably do.
Also, how to trigger the studio flash? The built-in's no good, since the pre-flash can't be switched off, and I don't want the bulk of a full-size manual gun. Is there a suitable hotshoe adapter for the trigger cable?
