Questions & Answers

Can it be used with Nikon D750 and Nikon ?

This is what I would expect. I use it on my D600 without any problems. (It only works as a trigger cable for my D80, however. In order to change the flash settings, I have to manually adjust it)

The Nikon D-series camera will work with this ?

Having never seen a Nikon D50, I have no idea what to expect.

Do you think it will work with a Yongnuo 568EX speedlight and Nikon D610 and ?

This cable will work with a Nikon flash as long as that flash works with the Nikon.

For the D5XXX series, does TTL work or not? Reviews that contradict each other do not yield any useful information. ?

The answer is yes. As well as the older D5000 models, it also runs on the newer D5XXX models. I own the D90, D300s and D800 cameras, which support this plug-in. Unfortunately this does not work with D3XXX series, (don't know why).

This is a good solution
4/5

The quality is high and the price is low. However, there are some limitations. There is no doubt that this Vivitar flash cable is quite good. There is only one difference (aside from price) between this and the other is.

Be careful with these problems, I had them
3/5

It is the first negative review I have written for a product, but I feel compelled to do it now. Purchasing this item was influenced by the good reviews and the fact that it had off camera flash capability and was reasonably priced. There was a problem with one of the samples I received. The price you pay is the quality you get. A problem and a problem 1 -

. Cheap plastic was used on the flash head to lock in the nut, but it did not work. There may be a relationship between expansion and contraction due to temperature changes. No matter what you do, it simply slips if you try to tighten it. If you drop your flash on the floor, your flash will break. This does not bode well. My intention was to return it, but I ran into a second problem. Please note "2. There was a problem with the locking pin on the camera head. There was no way for me to disengage it, no matter what I did. It still would not come off after trying for 20 minutes, just to walk away and try again. Continuing to fiddle with it worried me. I was concerned that I would damage the hot shoe of my camera. There seemed no way I was going to be able to avoid walking around for the rest of my life with a sync cord attached to The solution is My camera was literally wrapped in a towel and the top of the sync housing was cut off with a dremel to gain access to With the retaining pin removed, the bolt just slipped off the retaining pin. It's back to the store we go. Living and learning are the best ways to live. To the people who purchased this, I wish them the best of luck. The locking nut should always be kept in mind. They might be able to hold it better if they added a couple of extra threads to the nut. It is possible that I just got a bad unit since most of the ratings for this product are good. It is difficult to use the plastic nut for this purpose because it is too soft. The quality control team must have been sleeping the retaining mechanism was put in my Sync cord when they should not have been. After the mess I went through, I cannot recommend this.

Excellent compatibility with Nikon TTL flash with the Vivitar FCNIK Flash Cord
5/5

You might find that finding a dedicated flash cable for a DSLR or compact with a hot shoe is a difficult task, unless you do some research and possibly even do some searching. This is
