Questions & Answers

Shopper : I have several of these and need to daisy chain them. What cord makes the connection between these SC-28 units?TERRY K : Either the SC-26 or SC-27 TTL Multi-Flash Sync Cord
LOGAN A : How long is it? Is it really nine feet long?Alan K : Technically I guess it is 9 ft long, but you would really have to stretch it to its limits. Realistically I usually hold it at arms length when I use it with a flash, but it could be stretched to 6ft without applying too much stress on the cord
Ralph M : will this cord work with an SB80dx?PHILLIP S : Yes it willDAVID L : Yes it will.

Fantastic company to deal with!

My Nikon sync cord arrived as described on time. Every product I’ve ordered from Adorama has been perfection, I’ve gained so much confidence dealing with them. I purchase a lot of equipment online and haven’t found their equal in price & reliability. I would recommend anyone shopping for value & reliability give them a try!

Solid state, fits snug, works well. Wouldn't go without it.

It is a must for me to get my flash above the shoe. I use a bracket and this sync cord to do the job. They last a good long time, despite the workout I give them. The price is both reasonable and well worth it. Highly recommend the Nikon SC-28 dedicated Sync cord. ________Daniel Menacher, Photographer for 20 years.

The cord works as intended and can be an asset or save a shoot if your wireless triggers fail.

Hotshoe breaks after 1 yr

I like Nikon's products and use them exclusively. I use a Stroboframe bracket with this product and have replaced it at least once per year. The consistent problem lies in the hotshoe separating from the plastic housing. The hotshoe is just not capable of handling the weight of the SB-900 or SB-910. My business associate bought the knock off brand for half the price. He loves it and replaces it as religiously as I have.

I have yet to use it outside my home...

...but I was happy to find it works just as recommended. I like the fact that it is 9 ft. long, so I can easily use it with my tethered shutter release.

Easy Off Camera Flash

Just had this about two weeks. I took advantage of a sale. So far I have really enjoyed the effects of getting the flash off the camera, though still in the learning stage of what works. The cord has worked with my D70, D40, & D7000, using a Nikon SB 400 & a Quantaray/Sunpak flash . I haven't used in a dark setting so its lacking the AF illuminator has not affected me.

One small caveat

It has reported in online forums that this product may not work with Nissin flashes. I have a Nikkon D5100 and a Nissin 866i mark 2 and they won't work with this cable.

Works Perfectly

This cable works as it's intended. It takes up minimal space in the camera bag and is a plug and play item. Highly recommended for anyone looking to use their flash off camera for creative or better lighting effects.

They too shall fail

I've bought 4 of these in 7 years and all four have failed. As expensive as these things are you would think they would last much longer. I'm going to try the Phottix Strato brand. If it fails after a year, at least it was much cheaper than the OEM part and it lasted about as long

As always, Nikon quality and works flawlessly. I have more than one and use on Stroboframes for quick vertical/horizontal changeover.

Works perfect

I have tried third party cables and they don't always fire. This Nikon cable works every time. If you do a lot of off camera flash sync work pick up a few hot shoe covers. I lose them all the time.

Stay with Nikon

Looked at some other brands that were cheaper, but Nikon has better materials and construction. Now I can get the flash off the camera for better lighting of portraits.

An Indispensable Photographic Accessory

The Nikon Dedicated Sync Cord allows me to take photographs using off-camera flash, avoiding red-eye, but using sculpturing lighting in photographs of people. It also allows accentuating inanimate objects such as engravings on marble tombstones. If my cameras and flash are with me, the sync cord is as well.

Great Tool

This is a must have accessory for your tool kit. Comes in handy when you need to hand hold your flash off to the side. Also works well on camera frames.

Cord faces forward

The cord faces forward so you have to keep it out of the way of the less, would have been better to exit on back.

By Brechdofragen

This is a simple product that works great. I've tried 3rd party ttl cables in the past and had confusing results, sometimes they misfired, sometimes they fired but at 1/1 power not ttl exposure. This cable is well made, transfers TTL information flawlessly. It works great all the time.
