[QUOTE="Browncoat, post: 30820, member: 1061"] Yup. Manual flash. :) If you're worried about your pop-up flash affecting your shot, I think you're in the clear with the triggers you selected, Doug. They have a 30m (almost 100ft) range, and your pop-up flash certainly doesn't have that kind of power. However, Marcel described how to use the pre-flash option beautifully, so that's kind of a non-issue. As to your original question, after looking at your triggers, there doesn't appear to be any kind of sync cord socket on the receiver unit. The cable supplied is for the transmitter unit (camera mounted). The receiver does have some height to it. But it does swivel, so for the best results, I would just turn it 90 degrees and do the same to your flash head. [/QUOTE]
