Speedlite 600EX II-RT "Linked Shot" - can someone explain this to me?

[Besnette]

Strangely, there isn't a lot of information out there that I could find on this

I use a 600ex-rtii as a master.    I have several 400ex's as slaves.

Usually everything works ok.

I see a checkbox for "Linked Shot" in the menu when I am setting up the speedlites / radio trigger.  What does this do?

Thank you!

Amazing and perfect reply - so unless I have 2 cameras just ignore that option!   thank you!!!!!!!!!!

Yes you can ignore linked shooting unless you intend to fire 2 or more cameras off at the same time.
