<p>ohmygawd, Shun! you da man! thanx for the very detailed pics! i wonder why do 3rd party flash manufacturers not bother putting that nify lil contacts in front.</p>

<p>you guys are so awesome! so many responses in such a short time!<br>

anyway i took a hard look at the sc-29 and sc-28 and Shun, Luke & Ramon were right, there are 2 distinct brass metal points that are OUTSIDE the hotshoe which a 3rd party flash does not seem to have. since i don't have a Nikon flash myself, i assume Nikon flashes have this external 2 brass metal points to hook up to the SC-29 and provide power. iTTL functions are intact however.<br>

and Ramon is right that the SC-28 functions perfectly with 3rd party Nikon iTTL-compatible flashes because it has all the regular hotshoe contacts.<br>

thanks again, you guys are AWESOME!!!</p>

<p>i just bought the SC-29 cable (for use with the D300s) but when i plug it into a Sunpak PZ42XN (nikon iTTL compatible), TTL functions work but the AF assist illuminator on the cable doesn't light up. has anyone used this cable successfully with non-Nikon flashes or does this cable only work with Nikon flashes?</p>
