Product Description
Nikon is a precision optical company with worldwide manufacturing, research and marketing capabilities. The Nikon name is equated with extraordinary photographic performance, innovation, precision and optical quality.
Amazon.com Product Description
The Nikon SC-29 Off Camera AF TTL Cord easily mounts to the camera's hot shoe and enables an attached SB-800 flash to accurately auto focus in low light when placed on a flash bracket. Great for beautiful shadowless lighting. The cord uses a new AF Illuminator at the mounting point that overrides the SB-800's AF Illuminator. This completely eliminates any possibility of autofocus discrepancies when using the SB-800 off camera. The SC-29 TTL cord with the SB-800 quick recycling battery pack can also be used as an off camera master controller in a multi-flash set-up.

Make your TTL flash work for you September 10, 2007

The flexibility this cable gives you is well worth the money. Especially when shooting in the dark. The off-flash AF-Illuminator lets you point the flash anywhere while still being able to paint your subject for autofocus.
The build-quality is outstanding - the cable is heavy and doesn't get "over-stretched" easily.

I dont use this product in it's intended use in the studio. I wanted this cord to take out to the streets to get some weird flash angles similar to those of Bruce Gilden and my own original ideas concerning a whole matter of subjects. This works flawlessly with my SB-800 and D200. Giving a wide range of flexibility.
No matter what use you find for it, it'll work just fine.
 Be sure to get the Anti-Twist plate! December 21, 2007

This coil is great for mounting the SB-800 on top of your Nikon with the 350 flip bracket from Tiffen. I bought both, and found that with my battery pack on the Nikon D200 it would not go full center. In other words, I could not position the SB-800 center to the camera with the Stroboframe Quick Flip 350 Flash Bracket. So I had to do two things:
1) Unscrew the attachment and move it to the far right so that the flash unit was not hitting the infrared component. (Very easy to fix - I'm a novice, and if I can do it, you can, too.)
2) I absolutely needed the anti twist-plate. It's essential. If you don't get it, you may as well chuck the whole 350 flash bracket out altogether. It is needed so that the SB-800 doesn't spin around.
Get both and you'll be happy. 4/5 stars because I can't center the flash, but really, it's only a matter of an inch or an inch and a half, and I don't think it's going to ruin my photographing experiences beyond repair. Happy shooting!
Note: I love this thing.
Excelent!!! April 3, 2007

this product helps a lot. If you have a nikon flash and use the wireles TTL, it sucks a lot of energy from the bateries. with this cable it doesnt happens.
Needed off camera flash cord February 25, 2008

The Nikon SC-29 flash cord,although pricey, is a necessary addition to off camera flash attachments. Having looked at other cheaply made cords, with there flimsy attachments, I was convinced that the extra money would be better spent on the stronger construction of the SC-29. In addition, since I am using a non Nikon speedlight, I wanted a cord which would allow usage of my Sigma flash in both ttl and non ttl applications. The SC-29 has a nifty little switch which allows this to happen.On my Nikon D80 it has performed outstandingly with my non dedicated flash.
