Is there any way to fire 600ex speedlight off camera as a slave using pop-up camera flash?

You can control it optically from a body such as a 7D (I think the 60D and newer Rebels can do this too).
Set up your flash for an optical slave then setup a compatiable camera (such as the 7D) to trigger the off-camera flash
Flash Control menu
Built-in flash func. setting
Wireless func.
- Top icon for built-in plus external (using power ratio)
- middle icon for external Speedlite only
- bottom icon for built-in plus external (no ratio, same power)
I did this briefly when I got my 600EX RT, then I bought the ST-E3-RT and I'm loving radio control flash and no more line-of-sight set ups.

I have a T1i body. I don't think it will work with this body. Thank you anyway. I was planning on upgradeing bodies in the near future, so now I know what comes after that new 24-70.
