What’s a good begginer flash sync device?
I am an amateur photographer student with little experience and little money. I use a canon a-1 35mm and canon t2i dslr. I am looking to start purchasing basic entry level lighting equipment for a home studio. More specifically I would like to find something cheap that can sync older flashes to my dslr. The flashes are canon speed lite 155a and another one that is older and smaller. I have been looking at sync cords but I dont think those will fit into my new camera nor do i think you can use two at a time. Is it silly to even bother with these old flashes? Or should I save my energy and money for something down the line? The flashes seem powerful enough even with a diffuser so I don’t know.
Any suggestions would be awesome
thanks
Sam
For a studio, I am very skeptical about the capabilities of the 155A. It only has a Guide Number of 50 ft. The 580 exII, Canon’s flagship flash, in comparison, has a GN of 190ft. So, that’s definitely not a lot of power.
There are multiple way to sync your flashes. I use the Cactus V4. They are wireless and cheap (Transceiver+receiver=$65, additional receiver=$45). Some pros will tell you that they are not reliable (I never had any problem with mines), but I am definitely not a pro, and ditching $150 or more for the luxurious Pocket Wizard is just above my budget.
It is not silly to bother with old flashes 
If you can set it to manual and have a PC port they can be really helpful.
My advice?
First, read the Stobist blog and join the strobist group on Flickr. Then, thoroughly read, re-read and practice the assignments (L101 and L102). This will help you to lay a solid ground and master the terminology, understand how light work and take the most out of the equipment you already own. Only then, I would suggest to go for new acquisition
