I use this for forensic photography. it couples well with the Nikon D40x, but is a little tight in the hot shoe making it a little bit of a struggle to take it off. overall though it has just enough reach for hand held work, and stays out of the way unlike a longer cord.
In addition to the small release that wants to carve up your fingers, I can't seem to get the camera to sense the flash when connected. The flash will fire, but the shutter speed doesn't compensate.

The cord works as it should but I am still having a hard time detaching from the hot shoes of my Nikon F100 and D50 after two months of use. The only reason I bought this in the first place was that the Nikon cord was not available and the Adorama generic was recommended by Adorama. I wonder if I am doing something wrong but the cord did not come with instructions.

The pins match up with the shoe on my D50 perfectly. I am using it with a Nikon SB600 and have experienced no problems. The only complaint I would offer is that the release lever is very small and somewhat hard on the fingers. I slid a small piece of black wire insulation over it. It looks fine and is much easier on the the fingertip!

This is the 3rd one I've gone through in less than a year. When it works, it works. But the cord easily begins to stretch and break at the shoe mount. Same problem on all 3 cords. You have to take great care if you want it to last. Not for rugged everyday shooting!!! Next one I purchase is the real Nikon one to test it's comparitive durability.

Improved my flash photography. Locking pin is not the easiest to operate for locking to the camera hot shoe. Flash mounts easily and iTTL function works very well. Used for night photograhy and back lit situations with very good results. Cost is very good also.

iTTL worked as advertised. The finish on the base was a little rough, and the set screw. The release pin on the front could have used a little explanation.

Nibs didn't line up with Nikon hot shoe contacts, extremely tight fit on camera, module lock painful on fingertips, didn't work!
