Default Re: Canon shoe cord 2 used with FL-50

I received the following through a PM. It may be of general interest, so I moved into this topic together with my reply.

Is the TTL still working ?

I am considering to buy the Oly off shoe Cable, but it is very expensive.
Hi,
I think you should have posted the question on the Forum under the right topic so that others could read it and maybe reply to also. I took the liberty to move your question and my answer to the proper topic.

I have the E-500 and the FL-50 and TTL is working. I see no reason why it shouln't, the cable is just a stupid cable, extending the contacts, so I see no reason why it should not work with FL-36 and E-330 combination.

If you click here you can read and see more about my cable.

or

If you click here you can read and see more about my modified cable. The cable is modified to be able to extend the distance between the camera and the flash.

Edit:

Maybe I should mention that you should never try to use a Canon flash on an Oly camera or an Oly flash on a Canon camera because you may ruit the flash or the camera or both. If you decide to do that, make sure you cover all the contacts except the middle one and it that case the flash works as a normal Auto flash, no TTL. The cable is only for Oly to Oly or Canon to Canon combination.
