Vello Off-Camera TTL Flash Cord for Pentax Cameras (3')
Key Features
  • Compatible with Pentax P-TTL
  • Coiled Cord
  • Mounts to Flash Shoe
  • Mounts to 1/4"-20 Threaded Studs
The 3' Vello Off-Camera TTL Flash Cord provides creative photographers with the ability to remotely fire Pentax flashes with P-TTL capabilities. Removing the flash from the camera's hot shoe allows the photographer to create unique and dramatic lighting styles that are not possible with a traditional shoe-mounted strobe. This coiled cord measures 3', which is enough distance to accommodate hand-held lighting styles or when keeping the flash mounted on a compact flash bracket. Also, off-camera lighting reduces the harsh shadows commonly encountered with direct on-camera flashes and gives your photographs a more natural look.

Vello OCS-P Overview

The 3' Vello Off-Camera TTL Flash Cord provides creative photographers with the ability to remotely fire Pentax flashes with P-TTL capabilities. Removing the flash from the camera's hot shoe allows the photographer to create unique and dramatic lighting styles that are not possible with a traditional shoe-mounted strobe. This coiled cord measures 3', which is enough distance to accommodate hand-held lighting styles or when keeping the flash mounted on a compact flash bracket. Also, off-camera lighting reduces the harsh shadows commonly encountered with direct on-camera flashes and gives your photographs a more natural look.

One side of the TTL cable fits directly into the camera's hot shoe to ensure that all of the camera's exposure data is maintained. The other side can be attached to any stand, tripod, or device with a standard 1/4"-20 threaded stud or flash shoe mount, and the shoe has a locking knob to ensure your equipment is secure.

Flash for GRiiix

By Jeffrey
Rated 5 out of 5
Date: 2022-09-22

I wanted a TTL flash for that was small and compact for my GRiiix, this works perfectly in a small bag for travel and street along with the compact Pentax flash (Pentax AF201FG Flash)

Very handy

I wanted to use my TT350 off camera and still have TTL. This works great so I can handhold and bounce flash for more variety and possibilities.

Would this work between a Ricoh KR-10 Super and its flash (speedlight 240) ?
Asked by: Paul
While the Vello Off-Camera TTL Flash Cord for Pentax Cameras (3') will physically connect your Ricoh KR-10 Super to the Ricoh Speedlite 240, it will not provide TTL (Through-The-Lens) flash metering because neither the camera nor the flash supports it.

question

Will this cord work properly with a Vivitar DF 383 flash for Pentax? I actually tried the Vivitar equivalent of this off camera flash cord and the flash, which worked nicely mounted to the hot shoe of the camera, would not fire when in the TTL mode.
Asked by: Peter S.
Essentially TTLs are designed to work on the hot shoe not the extension cords, which lack the proper wiring design. Even so, moving the flash away from the camera distracts from the proper lighting. I recommend to practice and learn to shoot the camera and flash in manual modes.

question

Can you link two of these cords and make it twice as long?
Asked by: Brian
I don't own two of them so I have no way of testing, I guess you can make the physical connection. Why not buy a longer version there are plenty on opitions out there
