Simple, basic, works

Doesn't get much simpler than this, it's a PC to household straight sync cord...and, it works.

So easy it feels like cheating

I use these adapters on either end of a HH Female to HH Female extension cord made from 16 gauge speaker wire. One goes into the camera, the other goes into a shoe adapter with PC port. They've proven very reliable and maintain 1/250th sync speeds with my Sony a700. "Strobist" recommends a 6" cord of the same type, but 1' is long enough to wind around a light stand to take weight off of the connectors. Simply put, they're a great solution to cheap, modular lighting equipment.

Heavy Duty Straight Cords (1 Foot Straight ) 2-1S Household to PC

Household (HH) Two Prong Plug: Fits most professional flashes with dual blade receptacle such as Lumedyne, Norman, Braun, and Dynalite. Also, units with three-prong plug such as Dynalite (3 flat blades), Sunpak and Quantum Radio 4i (2 flat blades with 1 round pin in the center).

PC Standard Tip: For most professional cameras. Heavier tip construction provides a snug fit, will not fall out of camera or lens. Not recommended for Olympus, Minolta, Canon or other 35MM cameras, unless you loosen the PC with the "PC Conditioner Plus".

Lightweight cords don't stand up. They break, they short and their tips get loose, fall out, don't make contact. Heavy duty Paramount cords feature doubly insulated, heavy gauge wire for strength. Wires within the cords are positioned in parallel to eliminate twisting, knotting, kinking, and breaking, and they're individually stranded and tinned for maximum conductivity. Cord coils keep their spring and elasticity through years of use.

These PC Tips are stronger, too. Made of molded plastic with conductors wrapped between metal and nylon bushings, they permit the PC to rotate 360 degrees without breaking. Paramount tips seat solidly for reliable contact.

Paramount PC construction represents a significant improvement over traditional soldered connectors, which are brittle and often break. The heavy metal construction on the PC's resists splitting.
