Review Summary

What can you say about a connector other than it works as advertised. I tested the rig with a cactus v6II and a Pentax K-1 and cactus flashes which have a built-in receiver. I tested it with multiple flashes and it works, but I could not control the power individually, I could control the power if I set all flashes to the same group and everything had the same power setting.

I use this cable to interface a Canon 60D and a SkyWatcher All-View mount for time lapse and panoramic photography. The cable works great and the length is perfect for the application.

Take your photography to the next level with the Cactus V5 Shutter Cable, specifically designed for Canon Sub-Mini (E3), Pentax, and Samsung cameras. This high-quality shutter cable seamlessly transforms your Cactus V5 Wireless Flash Transceiver into a state-of-the-art wireless shutter release device, offering you enhanced control and precision in your photography sessions.
Ideal for preventing camera shake, this shutter release cable is an essential tool for night photography or capturing stunning images in B-mode. It's also perfect for long exposure photography, as noted by our users. Simply connect the coiled shutter cable from your camera's remote control terminal to the V5 transceiver x-Sync Port, and you'll have the ability to wirelessly control your camera's shutter with ease and accuracy.
One of the standout features of this shutter cable is its non-interference operation. Even when you're running a wireless flash setup using another set of V5 transceivers set on different channels, this shutter cable won't interfere. This means you can simultaneously operate both your shutter release and wireless flash systems without any hitches.
Whether you're into time-lapse, panoramic photography, or any other form of photography that requires a steady hand and precise control, the Cactus V5 Shutter Cable for Canon, Pentax, and Samsung cameras is a reliable and efficient tool to add to your photography equipment.
