Does anywhere know where I can find a female to female PC flash synch cable? I've searched all over the place but can't find one.
Cheers.

Hi Hoodi - sorry mate, no idea but haven't seen you for a while so thought i'd say hi.

If you manage to track down some Female Female action be sure to let me know and bring them along to the next beach do :)

If aren't able to get female to female, but are able to get male to male leads, you could get one, and 2 normal ones and join them up.

female-male <--> male-male <--> male-female

You would just end up with a bigger male - male lead with this combination, I think

Cheers Chappers but that's male-male :)
I'm tempted to just get two normal leads and splice them togethor to make a female-female. Nobody seems to sell them.

Hi Jonny :D

All I can find is a US site that does them. If all else failed you could see if they'd ship you one over - retailing for $3.95.

FSC12FF
Flash Sync Cord PC Female-Female, 12 inches
$3.95

Even if they charged you $15 delivery you're looking at less than a tenner.

See about dropping them an email

Bleurgh - problem with the US is that I kinda need it within a week - thanks a bunch anyway though, Matt.

I wonder if something like that could suffice? Probably not. Splicing some cables is probably your best bet.
