Product Description

The E-TTL Off-Camera Flash Extension Cord is an extremely useful accessory for Canon EOS series digital & 35mm film SLR cameras, allowing an external flash to be used away from the camera. The flash can be located as far as 3 feet away from the camera and still perform all the automatic functions possible with flash photography.

Using an off-camera flash provides the photographer with the flexibility to direct light from a variety of angles, allowing simple but effective fill lighting for balancing outdoor shots or hiding shadows under harsh indoor lights. An off-camera flash is also an effective primary light source when less direct lighting is desired.

1 out of 5 stars Poor build quality   December 3, 2008
I had two significant problems with this cord. It doesn't maintain function when you use a 580exII fully locked on the hot shoe. If you only slide the locking mechanism over halfway you can get the synch function but flash wasn't secure. My first shoot with this cord was a wedding. Halfway through the reception the hotshoe on the cord became loose from the bottom portion where it connects to a flash bracket. Bottom line if you are planning to use a 580exII save your money get canon or another brand. It worked okay with my 430ex but after the bracket connecter started to wobble that rendered it useless.


5 out of 5 stars Half the price and works great   October 13, 2008
I am using this adapter with an Olympus E-500 and the Olympus FL-36 flash. The cable works (TTL and all ) and costs less then half of the price of the Olympus cable.

If I need another cable I would buy it again!

Recieved one of these as part of a kit. My canon 20d didn't even see a flash attached [430ex and 580exII] My 5d was able to fire the flashes but only in manual mode. Both worked perfectly when mounted directly to the camera, and when I went out and bought the Canon product they worked with it. I'm not sure what camera it works with, but obviously not these. Also very flimsy build, I was scared it would break off when the 580, which is heavy, was mounted. E-mailed Adorama twice, asking for a working replacement, with no reply, finally sent it back. I did get a refund from the company but no reply ever to my inqueries. THe e-mail anouncing the refund said "please e-mail us if we can help you in the future" - too bad they don't seem to be able to do that.

This is my second purchase of this product. This item works as it should and is a good vale for the money. The only drawback is in it's construction. The neck of the Flash connection end is vulnerable. I used rubber washers to sure it up.

I use mine all the time and I never have any problems.
I was hesitant to purchase at first because of the reviews I read,
but I'm glad I followed through with the purchase.
