00006951  Hama Hot Shoe Adapter, flash synchronization contact

This tiny device is one of those gizmos that, once you have it, you wonder how you managed for years without one. It simply converts a camera with a hot shoe only flash contact to one that has a PC cable flash sync socket, thus opening up a host of options for new lighting techniques. Simply slide this little Hama hot shoe adapter into a standard hot shoe, plug in your flash gun cable and you are ready to start shooting.

This now means that you can connect multiple flashguns via this adapter and a flash splitter to allow up to 3 guns to be triggered simultaneously. You can also now make use of the studio lighting at your local camera club, simply by plugging the flash cable into the socket on the adapter. You can even add a bounce shoe adapter and connect its cable to the socket, allowing you to create new lighting effects.

Long distance flash triggering is now by connecting up to a 10m extension cable between the flash gun and the camera. This opens up a whole new way of working with flash on a hot shoe only camera and should find a corner in loads of gadget bags.
