When trying to light up a room using multiple remote T32 flashes set to auto
the interaction was generally not a problem. I'm attempting to get very flat
lighting. Imagine two T32s are used to cover a single wall each trying to
expose the wall to the same value. If light from one causes the other to
output less light that is fine since the sensor saw the desired amount of
light.
The missing key in my earlier post was that I was using an E-1 set to manual
exposure. The desired amount of light wasn't being changed by the camera.
So although the remote flashes were set to automatic the actual logic is
quite consistent with Dr. Flash's mantra of use manual. The difference is
that the sensor is what is deciding that the setting is correct for the
desired f5.6 rather than a calibrated knob.

Errr, a bit convoluted, eh. I would agree. So, the question is: does
the yabe radioslave trigger induce enough delay when triggering a T32
in auto mode to prevent major interactions with an on camera flash in
TTL mode? My impression is that there is some possibly important
interaction when the sensed areas overlap, though this is based on a
small # of observations. Should be a testable hypothesis. Would be
interesting to have a slave flash with the delay mode.
