I guess I don't trust that to work as well. My feelings for my K10D
have deteriorated somewhat. besides, I can't save any money; I don't
have any. anything I spend is courtesy of my bank so I try to sell
more than I buy and only get what I need without delay. "need" is
pretty relative anyway.

the hotshoe adaptor F lets me put one flash on top plus one via the
f5p cable so it effectively acts as a splitter. not sure about the
sync cord, I think not.

does this answer it? =)
