This is a special Sync Cord for connecting Ikelite Strobes to a Digital SLR in a housing ONLY!
Nikonos protocol strobes do not operate TTL with the Nikon D-TTL (D100, D1, D1X and D1H) or Canon E-TTL (D-30, D-60 and 10D) digital SLR Flash metering systems. These cameras requires this special sync cord which allows Ikelite SubStrobes to operate in manual mode and provide fractional powers when used with a housing. SubStrobe 50 operates full power only. Conversion circuitry to provide TTL operation is not available.
The Manual Controller #4100.6 can be utilized to provide 10 power settings in half-stop increments with either the DS-50 or DS-125 SubStrobes.

Comments about Sync Cord - Ikelite SubStrobe to Nikonos Digital Only (Non TTL):
Well, this cord has been around a long time. By now would've liked to see Ikelite re-engineer the housing connector better so that the individual connecting pins don't push up into the fitting making it useless over time...but hey, this is Ikelite.
