[QUOTE="hark, post: 372461, member: 13196"] Glad you were able to find something. When using the cord on the Stroboframe bracket, be aware of one possible problem. I used to have the first version of the coiled Nikon cord and wrapped it around the handle of the Stroboframe bracket as WayneF mentioned. When switching from vertical to horizontal, I needed to flip part of my bracket (with the flash attached) so keep the flash above the camera. When returning the bracket to the horizontal position, the bracket would catch the edge of the coiled cord and cut into it. One day the cord stopped working because of this (the wires were exposed) so I had to buy a new coiled Nikon cord. I don't know if there is a trick to prevent the cord from getting caught when switching from vertical to horizontal...or it may have to do with how my particular Stroboframe bracket is designed. The newer coiled Nikon cord uses a different locking mechanism to keep it attached to the bracket. The first one was a wheel that got rotated similar to the command dial on a camera body. The newer cord has a flip switch to lock the cord. They both worked well, but I prefer the newer cord's design. [/QUOTE]
