I found this sync cord in amongst a bunch of other cables I have. It fits the AF400T flash unit (which I don't own). Not sure if its compatible with any other flash units.

If anyone is after one of these, make me an offer for it, not sure what its worth but i'll take any reasonable offer.

Postage from Australia will be about 4quid

Hi Clarky. This cable is also good for the 645 to AF400T gun and it is good from Roscoes list of cameras to hotshoe holder which can carry the 280 flashgun. Just out of interest the hotshoe holder has an outlet on the other side so you can put a 280 on top and run a cable to another gun,
(a 400 for example) and use them both on TTL. I personally run the 280 on the 645 on the hotshoe holder and have two 400,s hard wired so I can use all three guns together on TTL. All run from the camera on the
4P Sync. Cord. I just thought that with a little more info' a few more people might be interested
CHEERS Vic.

Thank you for the heads up on those two - but it is the Pentax 4P - Sync cord B I am after, it has a hot shoe attachment at one end and 5 pins at the other. The A cords on sale have an LX type fitting at the one end.
Regards

Steve (Clarky) seems to be much less active in this forum than he once was. His last login was almost a month ago.

I have one of the cables pictured (that came with the grip I hacked for use with the AF540 )

If you're interested, PM me with an offer
