This device has a PC female socket upon its side, a "cold" flash shoe upon the top and a button upon the bottom. When this device is placed into a "hot" flash shoe of a camera, firing the camera will activate anything connected to the PC female socket upon the side.
Use a cord with a "PC male" connection upon one end and whatever your flash employs to fire upon the other end, insert the PC male connection of the cord into this device and the other end of the cord into the flash. When the camera fires, assuming this device has been placed in the hot shoe of that camera, your flash connected to this device's PC female socket will also fire.

Comments about Kaiser Hot Shoe to PC Adapter:
I got this so I could get an Ebay radio trigger to work with my Drebel. And it does work. However, the slot is so tight that you have to really jam the trigger on there. And once it's on it's difficult to get it off.
So I got the "general brand" adapter and it's perfect. Cheaper, too.
For other uses the Kaiser seems as if it would be fine, but if you need something to work with the eBay triggers, go with something else (the Kalt seems fine, too).
Comments about Kaiser Hot Shoe to PC Adapter:
This hot shoe doesn't fit onto the Minolta 7D or the the Sony Alpha 100. In fact, it won't work on any camera where the flash shoe has a raised center. It only fits a flash shoe shaped like it's own cold flash show on the top.
