I have ordered a set of cyber-Syncs and they are on the way. What, if any connectors come with them. I want to fire my 430EXs with them. Can I use my PC hotshoe adaptor like I did with my Cactus V2's?

you need pc to hotshoe adapter for the 430. with the vivitar, unless you have that special cord, you'll need a pc to HS also.

I had a pair of hot shoe to miniphone jack (female) adapters from FlashZebra (item #0067) that I used with sync cords to fire my 430EX's. They work with the cords that came with the CyberSyncs - I didn't have to buy any additional cords. By the way, I've not had a single misfire with the CyberSyncs.

My Cybersyncs shipped with the AB cord AND a mini to PC cord. I use them to fire my 550EX and 430EX with this from FlashZebra - http://www.flashzebra.​com/hotshoes-shoes/0065.shtml (external link)

Thanks Dave, I'm about to order some Cybersyncs and I have the exact same flashes so that's very useful to know.
