The Canon Off Camera Shoe Cord 2 was designed to assist photographers in more efficiently lighting their subjects. By allowing the flash to be moved off the camera, while retaining all flash functions, the shoe cord allows for better flash positioning, which translates into more controllable illumination. The shoe cord is compatible with all Canon EOS models, except for the EOS 630 and RT.
This useful accessory maintains all on-camera flash functions for one Canon Speedlite used off-camera, at distances up to 2ft./60cm.
Moving the Speedlite off-camera results in better control over lighting angle.
The Off-camera Shoe Cord 2 is not compatible with the EOS 630 or RT. Although fully functional with all other EOS models, radio interference emitted by this product may exceed the specified limits in the United States, Canada, and Germany when used with the EOS 10s.
