A remote system consists of a master or controller flash unit on the camera and one or more slave flash units. The slave flash unit is wirelessly remotely controlled by the master or controller flash unit. Unlike a controller flash unit, with a master flash unit, the flash contributes to the exposure.

Slave flash mode is perfect for particularly creative lighting design. This involves the positioning and use of an external flash unit wherever required, and entirely without the need for a cable. This can create interesting light accents – or with the use of several slaves the split lighting of subject and background.
