Worked as advertised

By JustBob

from Edinboro, PA on 8/25/2008

Pros:

Lightweight

Cons:

Limited to one device

Best Uses:

Fill Flash, Lighting, Off-camera flash

Describe Yourself:

Hobbyist/Enthusiast

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

This worked as advertised. I would like to see some option for adding additional lighting options with this device. There is only one connection port and you cannot use multiple flashes.

What do you expect? It works.

By Ryan

Pros:

Convenient Interface, Reliable, Strong Construction

Best Uses:

Lighting

Describe Yourself:

Hobbyist/Enthusiast

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

This little dealy-bopper is simple, reliable and effective. There are no frills and no fuss. If you are exploring the world of off-camera flash, but would rather spend [$] on this rather than buying a new DSLR with a PC connection, you are set. It does what it's supposed to and always works.

Pros:

Lightweight, Reliable

Best Uses:

Lighting

Describe Yourself:

Professional

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

All I had to adjust was the male pc connetor on the cable towards the flash unit. Just needed to be squeezed to make the outer shell smaller so it fits tight on the nikon adapter. The adapter sets securely on the hot shoe by tightening the inluded nut. Don't make it too tight or it's hard to untighten.

Weak Construction

Hobbyist/Enthusiast, Professional

Bottom Line:

It is a great thing to have for off camera flash. Especially if you are a minimalist like I am, and don't want to invest in the pocket wizards just yet. Just remember it is made of plastic, so treat is as such.

Pros:

Will not work with 8800

Cons:

Poor Interface

Best Uses:

To convert hotshoe to pc

Bottom Line:

No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I contacted Nikon USA who indicated that this product would work with a Nikon 8800 to convert hot shoe to PC, Product does not work with this camera, [...] Nikon gave bad advise on their tech line.
