The GPS craze has hit big time, must have been a favorite stocking stuffer this year. That\u2019s cool! I\u2019ve received a number of emails in regards to the di-GPS<\/strong> <\/a>especially about it just \u201cdangling\u201d when you have something else in the camera\u2019s hot shot. Here\u2019s my solution.<\/p>\n I rarely work with flash on camera, it\u2019s mostly off camera so I\u2019m using an SC cable, either the SC-28<\/a><\/strong> or SC-29<\/a><\/strong>. The SC-28 is the cord I use for general photography; the SC-29 I\u2019ve cut down and is used just with the Wimberley F-9 Flash Arm<\/a><\/strong> when I\u2019m shooting with the 600f4 on a tripod. I have a number of \u201chot shoe\u201d receivers lying around in the drawers, so I have attached them to the tops of the SC cable foot that slips into the camera\u2019s hot shoe. You can just Crazy Glue them on, but they tend to snap off. Using Pilot Point drill bits (not pointed tips), I\u2019ve drilled holes into the top of the SC foot and screwed in as well as Crazy glued the hot shoe receiver. They never snap off, but drilling holes into your cords is not for the weak of heart and it most definitely voids the warranty.<\/p>\n What about when I have a SU-800 attached? I\u2019ve not had the nerve to drill into the side of mine yet to attach a hot shoe receiver. That\u2019s where I draw the line. But, I\u2019m still looking for a solution to when it\u2019s attached to the hot shoe. There are times when the SU-800 is in a SC cable and those times, the problem is solved.<\/p>\n One last note. The hot shoe receivers don\u2019t always snuggly hold the di-GPS. I simply used a couple layers of electrical tape in the base of the hot shoe receiver to build it up and hold the di-GPS foot in tight. Hope this helps, have fun!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The GPS craze has hit big time, must have been a favorite stocking stuffer this year. That\u2019s cool!
