Ok, so with the main light, I can do several shots (bracketed 1 stop) and move the main light in a semi circle about the subject, getting various effects with the light. Should the main light have a snoot and focused on the smoke? This would have the fill (2-3 stops less light) to illuminate the model. > Keep using the MZ-S - using the monolights, you're using manual exposure. > Once you have the exposure set for the monolights, set the exposure > compensation on the MZ-S body to -3 and you should have enough light to > trigger the monolights, but not enough to influence what gets recorded on > the film.

I also have an off camera cable for it, so I could simply point it at one of the monolights, facing away from the subject. With this method I could also do a rear curtain sync.
