Summary: Great item if you've got a third hand.
Review: Getting your flash off camera is crucial for natural looking lighting in many situations. Having to endlessly dismount the flash, mount the cord and finally attach the the flash to the shoe on the cord only to reverse the process when you want to put your flash back on the camera makes this otherwise priceless accessory tedious at best. It's not long enough for use with an umbrella so why does it not come with some sort of quick-release feature that will allow you to switch quickly from on camera to off?

Summary: Needs a mounting screw
Review: The flash bracket end only has a screw hole for a tripod, useless when used with a typical flash bracket. As such, there's no way to security fasten the flash bracket end to the bracket, so it just keeps sliding out of the channel. Hey Canon, think before you design!

Summary: off shoe cord
Review: this is a very useful item...I have been taking pictures for over forty years. you can move the flash unit off the camera and use a bracket to place the shoe on, and create better pictures and also get the red out of the subjects eyes. try it you'll like the results.
