You have a couple options for this scenario: Cabled: Use a hotshoe with PC socket and then a regular PC cable. Something like this is the key: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1941615-REG/jjc_jsc_2_hot_shoe_adapter.html/?ap=y&ap=y&smp=y&smp=y&store=420&smpm=ba_f2_lar&lsft=BI%3A514&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=2085921075&gbraid=0AAAAAD7yMh3zrCVv-O9bdZr7axyXlTm1o Radio Wireless: Use a wireless trigger that allows for cable connections and then a hotshoe remote (Godox makes inexpensive 'dumb' triggers that can do this) Optical Wireless: Connect your camera to a flash that works (however you want). Use an optical slave hotshoe on your off-camera flash. When the main flash goes off, so with the other ones. Optical slave: https://www.amazon.com/Optical-JJC-Threaded-Speedlight-Standard/dp/B079DPVBRV I have and have used all three methods. The SB-E flash you are using may not be ideal for this use case. When being used off camera, the 'auto' mode is useless as it assumes that the flash is the same distance from the subject as the camera. You'll need to have it turned to full power.
