Flash Sync Cable JJC SC-28 (SC28) TTL/i-TTL, 1.3 m, compatible with Nikon

JJC SC-28 is a 1.3 m flash sync cable designed for Nikon TTL/i-TTL systems. It provides a reliable wired connection between a camera and a compatible speedlight, maintaining TTL exposure metering while allowing off-camera flash placement. The cable is intended for photographers who need consistent sync timing and accurate automatic flash control in studio or location environments.

Advantages

The JJC SC-28 preserves TTL/i-TTL communication so automatic exposure metering and flash power adjustment remain active when the flash is positioned off-camera. Its 1.3 m length offers a balance between reach and manageability, reducing the need for long trailing cables while allowing flexible flash placement. The cable ensures stable electrical contact and consistent triggering without relying on radio or optical triggers, which can be affected by interference or ambient light.

Suitable for

• Portrait, event and studio photography where off-camera flash control with TTL is required
• Multi-flash setups that demand wired synchronization for consistent timing
• On-location shoots where radio triggers are restricted or unreliable
• Photographers who prefer direct wired connections for reduced latency and interference

Key specifications

• Connector type: camera-compatible hotshoe to flash-compatible plug for Nikon TTL/i-TTL
• Length: 1.3 meters
• Signal support: TTL/i-TTL automatic flash metering and manual triggering
• Cable construction: insulated flexible cord designed for regular handling
• Compatibility: designed for Nikon cameras and compatible speedlights supporting TTL/i-TTL communication

How to use

Attach one end of the JJC SC-28 cable to the camera's hotshoe or designated sync port according to your camera model, and connect the other end to the compatible speedlight's sync terminal or shoe. Ensure both camera and flash are powered on and set to the appropriate TTL/i-TTL mode if automatic flash metering is desired. Position the flash off-camera at the desired angle and distance; the cable will carry trigger signals and metering data so you can shoot as usual while retaining automatic exposure control.

Usage recommendations

Inspect connectors before each use to ensure clean contact and avoid intermittent triggering. Avoid sharp bends or pinching of the cable to prolong lifespan. For extended outdoor sessions, keep connections dry and protected from dust. If TTL communication is not required, the cable also supports manual flash triggering when both devices are set accordingly.
