Kinda cute (though expensive) solution to TTL cordless remote... Though
there are a couple of problems. The remote camera should have a film scrap inside for the correct flash TTL metering reflectivity. If the
remote flash camera is placed at too great an angle from the subject compared with the taking camera, the light from the remote (being side-light), will be insufficient and will need to be compensated,
reducing the simplicity of TTL exposure. If the angle is kept small,
TTL remote cords work well instead of double cameras and flashes
(and the sensor is where it needs to be for correct exposure). Also,
when multiple TTL or auto flashes are simultaneously fired, and are not
wired together, uncontrolable flash ratios can occur between them.
Hope this helps.
