You should be able to get a slave adaptor for about a fiver so that the
digital's flash can set off the other flashgun.
You would probably need to turn off anti red-eye (the pre-flash would fire
the slave prematurely) and you may want to block out most of the width of
the digital's flash so it's not overexposing.
