Questions & Answers

BEVERLY E : Will this work for a Canon 5D Mark IV?JOHN V : Yes, it works on both of my Canon cameras - 1Dmkiv and 5dmkii. Yes, tested and confirmed.JEFFRY H : yesJohn W : This works on Canon cameras with the 3 pin N3 plug, however the flex TT5 is replaced by the Flex TT6 for the Canon 5DIVDAVID N : 5D Mark IV, No. See compatible cameras in the Product Overview. 5D Mark iii, Yes.ADAN R : N3 cable is a standard cable for Canon DSLR, including the Mark 4.
Shopper : How long is this cable?PIOTR Z : It's 92cm ;)SMITH T : This cable is 3 foot in lengthSTEVEN P : It's 36" long. Solid weight cable and very well made. I have three for over a couple of years with no problems or complaints.... high quality piece of equipmentMARTIN K : 36"
Henry W : HI everyone. I'm confused. If I have two pocket wizard plus iiis, one on my camera and one on hand, do I still need this cable? Wouldn't the pocket wizard on-camera communicate with my camera via the hotshoe? I would like to be able to take some remote portraits..MAGNUS D : The Pocket Wizard does communicate with the camera via the hot shoe but only as it relates to the flash units. To release the shutter remotely you will need this cable.BRAD R : You still need the cable. The hotshoe doesn't communicate with the cameraEDWARD L : IF you are trying to remotely trigger your camera, yes the cable is necessary. You might want to go to the device website to look up your setup.BRUCE M : I think the answer to that is. That cable triggers the camera just like a remote canon rs-80n3VENISA L : Yes, you would need the cable to fire the camera remotely.VICTOR A : Yes, if you want the Pocket Wizard III to fire a remote camera. The hotshoe connection is how the Pocket Wizard III knows to trigger a flash or remote camera when it is attached to a local camera. The local camera shutter release is what tells the Pocket Wizard III to fire. Basically, the hotshoe is only an output from a camera and not an input signal to the camera.KEITH A : If you place the PW III on your camera, the camera will trigger the other one to fire but not vice versa. If you want to remotely trigger the camera, you have to buy the cable unfortunately.

Remote camera cord for Pocket Wizard.

I ordered the pocket wizard to canon camera cord to set up a remote camera at an ncaa basketball tournament. It works as designed. The connections are solid and the plugs connect well. This cord works with the Pocket Wizard Plus transceivers and connects to the Canon 5d mkii. I like Pocket Wizard and have used them since the late 1990s with off camera lights at weddings. My original set of Pocket Wizard transceiver and receiver are still working after all these years.

Great cable for remote.

Pocket Wizard's website can guide you to the right cable for your camera, but to be clear this cable allows you to use a pocket wizard radio just like a cable remote. I am using the Plus II radios and the half shutter and motor drive work with this cable while also letting the camera go to sleep to save power and can be woke up with a half press. The picture in the description is off in that the stereo plug is not metal but the N3 Plug has the metal lock which is the most important part, anyone ever using an off brand cable will know how important it is to have this metal cap on the camera side.

A required item for Flex TT5

I know that the description says that the old trigger cable will work however you won't have E-TTL functions but this is not true. I got the old cable from Adorama since this one was out of stock and the old cable will NOT trigger my 1D Mark III in any way shape or form. I am currently trying to see what it takes to return the old style cable to Adorama since it is useless with the TT5.

Remote camera cord for Pocket Wizard.

ACC Cables are a special kind of Pre-Trigger cable for use with the new FleXTT5 or the latest MultiMAX. Toggle Pre-Trigger on and off remotely with the MultiMAX. Required for remote camera triggering with a FleXTT5 if using E-TTL functions. NOTE: An older mono motor drive cable and/or pre-release cable can be used instead of an -ACC cable with a FleXTT5 but you will not have E-TTL capability.

This cable contains a pre-trigger connection. When a remote zone is enabled on a MultiMAX, the camera behaves as if the camera's shutter release button were held half-pressed continuously. This makes the camera respond more quickly and consistently, but also consumes the camera's batteries much more quickly. When the remote zone is disabled, the camera will enter its normal sleep modes
