add a pc sync jack to a nikon sc-28 ttl cable (use auto settings for an on camera flash and trigger off camera flashes!!)

in this instructable i will show you how to remove one of those pesky proprietary 3pin TTL connectors on the side of a Nikon SC-28 off camera TTL cable and replace it with a standard PC sync connector. this will allow you to use a dedicated flash, such as a SB-600 on a flash bracket and also trigger off camera lights with a radio trigger when your camera doesn't have a built in PC connector. this way you can have an automatically set flash on camera and a more powerful manual flash mounted in the ceiling or on a tall light stand for event photography.

Step 1 Gather your materials

you'll need

• a Nikon SC-28 (of course)
• PC sync Jack
