I want to connect my Sunpak speedlight to my N65

I want to connect my Sunpak 344 speedlight on a flash bracket to my

Nikon N65 camera. I'm not sure what sync cord to get, to connect my

speedlight from the hotshoe on my camera body to the shoe on the

bracket.

I've read on other info sites that I need to use the SC-17 sync

cord, does anyone else know what I need?

thanks;

Tony

If your speedlight is a dedicated speedlight that works in the hot shoe of your camera then the SC-17 sync cord is the correct item. If you want to use your camera�s built in flash as a trigger or fill light to your Sunpak 344 you can also use a Nikon SU-4 remote TTL Slave.

Hope this helps,

SC-17 remote flash cord. It has its own shoe that mounts to your bracket and accepts your flash. It's not a "sync" cord by the way and if you tire of your Sunpak you can use it with any of the Nikon dedicated flashes for full TTL control.

Just the facts sir...<br>

The Nikon SC-17 TTL Remote Cord attaches to your bracket with

a 1/4-20 screw. On my bracket I needed a 1/4" fender washer

that was about 1" (25mm) in overall size and a 1/4-20 x 1/2"

stainless steel cap screw. Dont screw a screw that is too

long in as you may bust your new $55.00 toy! <br>

<br>

Its going to go slip-sliden away if you dont

have something sticky under it like a thin neoprene or vinyl

washer. You may have to drill 1/4" hole in your bracket.

Stop worrying and buy it, Ive got three of them honest!<br>

<br>

Oh hell Ill throw a monkey wrench in the works. You might

want a shortened one like this for $35.00 more. I do but Im

too cheap...<br>

Go to <a href="http://www.bhphotovideo.com/" target="_new">B&H

Photo</a> and search for "SC-17" There are a bunch more

ways to spend your money if you dont have a 1/4" inch

hole or dont want to drill one. They run from $6.00 to $18.00.
