The D7000 has a commander mode. Why did you choose the SU-800 over using that?

I was trying to focus on the principles, not the gear. Many cameras don’t have a built-in commander and so it was easier to just demonstrate that you need something to transmit by adding the SU-800. Some Canon cameras (like the Rebel we used) also have built in transmitters, but the majority of cameras do not. I was just trying to keep it simple.
