    Source for "raw" PC flash connectors???

    With Paramount flash cords no longer made. I need some custom flashcords, and the new import cords look like the cheap cords of olde that only worked once or twice...

    Are just the raw new PC cable end connectors, or the bulkhead type used in camera bodies and devices out there for sale so I can make them from scratch??? I searched a little online, but didn't find any...

    Thanks!!!

    i've seen them in bulk on aliexpress before, but nothings coming up now. plenty of cheap adapter cables you could chop up though. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/5237...d=i4bwd5cIJerA

    ebay has some bulkhead types. https://www.ebay.ca/itm/251302855540...3ABFBMsNnVtd5i

    Recently I needed a pc-pc cord (male to male, not an extension), and boy was it hard to find. Bought multiple “import” cords and they are lightweight but work reliably. The quality was a lot better than I expected. Not sure how long they’ll last, though. Equally hard to find was the pc cap.

    Flash Zebra cords have been reliable for me. Haven’t ordered anything post-covid though.
