greenspun.com : LUSENET : Imaging Resource Discussion : One Thread

I would like to attach a sych cord to 950 so that I can use with studio strobe. Not concerned about studio quality, but how to use with Power Pac. What sych to adapt to power pac standard cord.

I think the sync will only connect to a new nikon strobe which you can use to trigger a slave in your pack. I just used the modeling lights on auto white balance...t

The 950 I believe, but not entirely sure, will only sync with the Nikon strobe. I was surfing around the other day and found a site that contains info on how to set up two or three $20 Ritz camera slave flashes which are triggered by the built in 950 flash. The setup works pretty well. A lot of portrait photos from the slave flashes are displayed. The site is http://albums.photopoint.com/j/AlbumIndex?u=10081&a=167155
