I use an *ist-DS and shoot maybe 1/3 of the time with strobes. I use a
PC connector about fifty percent of the time - the other 50% with a
flash mounted at 90deg on a 1/16 trigger setting.
The hotshoe/pc adaptor I bought a while ago cost me AU$0.50 and has
never failed me. I actually use it in preference to the PC connector
built into the body of other cameras I have as the connector fits more
snugly and is further out of the way in portrait orientation.
In weighing up the pros and cons of the IstD vs IstDS I think the PC
connector is a non-issue.

Not having a vertical grip is another matter...

Cheers,
Simon
