It looks like the cited cords are designed to "fire" a Nikon flash using a Canon camera. But that is the limit of thee cooperation you will get. There will be no additional function like TTL. A common two conductor sync cord would provide the same function. Enjoy! Lon yeah, i'm looking for TTL.... do they make such a cable/hotshoe adapter? -David T.

Most flashes will work in manual when on another brand of camera. Except for the camera makers that decided it would be a good idea to completely redesign the flash foot. What were they thinking?

If your 5D is special and can run the Nikon software that the camera needs to have to talk to the flash.

You will not find a cord or other adapter that will provide TTL to a Canon camera using a Nikon flash.
