Can anyone identify this lead please?

I just bought it on eBay alongside a 'real' Pentax 5P lead - this looks the same but is a bit bigger and does not fit the SLRs and flashes that many in the group will be familiar with.....

It is a genuine Pentax lead however - if anyone can positively identify then I'll be better able to sell it again.

Thanks

I'd assume it was a synch cord 5P (L) http://kmp.bdimitrov.de/flashes/index.html But I'm sure Matt or John will give you chapter and verse!

Hi, it looks to me as if it might be an extension cord for a hot shoe grip, or maybe an AF400T flashgun.

I have a couple of long TTL flash leads for the AFT400 and if that is an extension for them the close up of the female end shows that it wouldn't fit either of my original Pentax leads. They have four pins around the circumference and one in the middle.

Just to clarify - it absolutely is not a synch cord 5P or anything to do with 35mm or DSLR photography - I know (because as mentioned in the original posting) I have one!!!

Are there different leads for medium format Pentax? (But that means different flashguns.....)

It strikes me that without a positive ID from this forum then perhaps it's nothing to do with Pentax photo equipment at all? How about Pentax CCTV - or endoscopy?
