->> The better question might be, what cords should I be using to sync the D2H with the PW and how do I set it up?

Thanks

->> Adrian, I'm not sure you'll get the desired result with only two PW's; you'll probably want to use three. Connect two slave units to your D2H's through the electronic shutter release. Use a master PW to trigger the two slaves simultaneously. If you have one remote and one handheld, you can mount the master PW on your monopod. If you use only two PW's, what you end up with is one camera triggering the other with flash sync - which may or may not give you the results you desire. There will be a slight delay in the remote camera's firing. Whether that delay is perceptable or acceptable depends upon the speed of the subject and your own definition of "simultaneous". :-)

The cables for this connection are available for anyone who sells PW's. I just ordered six MultiMax's from Samy's, and they are also providing the cables, both for my D2h's and my White Lightning strobes.
