Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Product Description
The Nikon SC-29 Off Camera AF TTL Cord easily mounts to the camera's hot shoe and enables an attached SB-800 flash to accurately auto focus in low light when placed on a flash bracket. Great for beautiful shadowless lighting. The cord uses a new AF Illuminator at the mounting point that overrides the SB-800's AF Illuminator. This completely eliminates any possibility of autofocus discrepancies when using the SB-800 off camera. The SC-29 TTL cord with the SB-800 quick recycling battery pack can also be used as an off camera master controller in a multi-flash set-up.

Make your TTL flash work for you5
The flexibility this cable gives you is well worth the money. Especially when shooting in the dark. The off-flash AF-Illuminator lets you point the flash anywhere while still being able to paint your subject for autofocus.
The build-quality is outstanding - the cable is heavy and doesn't get "over-stretched" easily.

Needed off camera flash cord5
The Nikon SC-29 flash cord,although pricey, is a necessary addition to off camera flash attachments. Having looked at other cheaply made cords, with their flimsy attachments, I was convinced that the extra money would be better spent on the stronger construction of the SC-29. In addition, since I am using a non Nikon speedlight, I wanted a cord which would allow usage of my Sigma flash in both ttl and non ttl applications. The SC-29 has a nifty little switch which allows this to happen.On my Nikon D80 it has performed outstandingly with my non dedicated flash.

Oh my, what fun5
I dont use this product in it's intended use in the studio. I wanted this cord to take out to the streets to get some weird flash angles similar to those of Bruce Gilden and my own original ideas concerning a whole matter of subjects. This works flawlessly with my SB-800 and D200. Giving a wide range of flexibility.

No matter what use you find for it, it'll work just fine.
