So since my Meike RC7 isn't triggering the new version of the YN-560, I want to try with a sync cord. What is the cable I need called?
3 pin something - female pc sync cable?

Feb 04, 2011 09:40 | #4 Thanks, I've read at least one review stating it works fine with the 560 but I suspect that is the old model with the plastic foot. Maybe I won't bother trying a sync cord, at least I can use the Meike with my 468 or as a wireless RF camera shutter trigger

Begin by replacing the adapter pictured above with a PC-to-hot shoe adapter.

My idea: use one of the supplied cables that ends with the 1/4" plug and then get a 1/4" male to PC connector like this one:http://www.flashzebra.com/pics/nikonscrewlockradio.jpg 1D MK IV, 24-105mm L, 15mm, 50mm f1.8II
