It looks like the the Mecablitz is TTL-capable, so you can follow Tanzer & Anvh's advice. If you want to manually control your off camera flash(es) for creative effect (or if the off camera strobes are non-TTL) you can still use your on camera flash to trigger the others without any major negative effect. Just ensure that you turn OFF the TTL on your on camera flash and turn the power of your on camera flash all the way down. The TTL pre-flashes will prematurely trigger your off camera speedlight(s). Also, with the power on the on-camera flash on the way down, it should not interfere with the other lights if they are bright enough. I don't have a K5ii, but it sound like you may be able to use the controller mode to trigger the off camera flashes as long as a) the off camera flashes are set in TTL mode also, or b) the on camera flash is not in TTL mode and firing pre-flashes that will make the others go off early. Hope this helps!

This may be a dumb question, but how do these attach to the light stands? (I've only ever used small speedlights on stands before)
