I've got an easy one, I hope. I see that I can get a household to bipole cord which should connect to my X contacts on my Graphex shutter. I'm getting ready to send the shutter off somewhere for a CLA, so I can probably have the continuity checked. Now, what modern flash unit brands use a household socket?

A lot of the professional units use this connection, Rob. My Lumedyne flash did. Also, you can get hot shoes which accept the HH plug. You can then mount flash units which sync through the shoe that way. Finally, you can get a conversion short cord HH female to PC.

Don't forget Paramount. I had them make me a double post to Vivitar cord, which I now use a lot.

Sigh. I should spend more time checking out the web, but my connection is *so* slow...If Paramount will make up cords with any of the plug sets they have, then I'm golden. (I saw their list on Cress Photo's site when checking out flashbulb information, but didn't track their site down to see what was possible.)

Thanks,

Rob Dean

Here's their site - and the special Graflex section they have.
