Thanks for any help!
I was unable to find a manual for the QF30 online, so I have no idea of their capabilities, it sounds like they don't have sync ports, so the first thing you'll want to do is get some hotshoe to sync adapters and/or slave trippers(it triggers the flash to go off when it detects another flash firing) check out Midwest Photo Exchange Specializing in Off Camera Lighting, New and Used Photographic Cameras, Lighting, Printers, Medium and Large Format for both of those. They'll also have sync cords to connect with your camera model.
Also Strobist will have lots of useful data for making the most of your flashes
