I want to use an extra flash with my digital camera but it doesnt have a flash mount. I think a wireless slave flash will be triggered by my cameras inbuilt flash and help with lighting my pictures.
Thats the theory anyway
So where can I buy one?

£9.79 plus p&p at www.7dayshop.com
Product decription states "Enables you to fire one flashgun off at the same time as another - without wires. Has a suction cup for Multi positioning on the slave flash sensor eye. PC cable required for connecting to flash."People are more important than things0 -
Description sounds a bit confusing - "without wires", "PC cable required".... Some cameras have wireless flash capability (check the manual), otherwise you need a flash operated by photocell (triggered when your camera flash fires). Jessops used to sell a photocell adapter - you could attach any flash unit to it.0

Then Im looking for a flash that takes batteries with an inbuilt photocell then that will trigger when it sees my inbuilt camera flash fire
Where can i find one of those?
ive tried jessops, 7dayshop, ebuyer and internetcamerasdirect.0 -
One on ebay (flash with slave, although check that slave unit is included as the wording is "we also supply slave units...") http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Flash-gun-Bounce-Head-flashgun-AC-DC-NEW_W0QQitemZ7549726610QQcategoryZ15221QQcmdZViewItem
Jessops on-line list a few, start at http://www.jessops.com/shop.cfm and enter SLAVE in the search (top left of screen). Doesn't look too promising for posting links on here (links look like relative indexes into the search list).0
