Thanks, Hans, and also to Dave for beating me to the punch asking the
question.
I was going to ask this same question today - the list never ceases to amaze
me.
Did my first "studio" portrait shoot yesterday, for church Mother's day
brunch.
I used a T-32 firing into an umbrella, a T-32 firing into a Photoflex XS
LiteDome,
and a third T-32 above the camera with a Stofen diffuser. The pictures
turned out
really well for my first attempt (after a practice roll in my living room
last
weekend). Interestingly, shooting in Auto TTL mode the pictures came out a
slight bit overexposed compared to using Manual and my new Sekonic Flash
Master
meter for readings. Why might this be??

Many studio flashes have built-in slave sensors; otherwise you use separe
slave
sensors, or direct PC cord connection with a multi-cord splitter.
:and finally how one computes flash with a manual (non TTL camera).
You use a flash meter with multiple flashes in manual mode.
