Ikelite, and perhaps Metz, Nikon and others have built flashes that slave
both on light start and light off. So with one triggering OTF flash from
any camera, the other flashes are also controlled. I think one of the Metz
flashes on camera can also signal quench by radio. Have your $$$ ready.
Haven't tried any of this, though.
