You can connect the FA-CC1AM cable to one of 3 things<\/p>\n \u2022 the port in the side of your flash (Minolta 5600 HSD, Sony HVL-F56AM and HVL-F58AM all have this port already)<\/p>\n \u2022 a Sony FA-TC1AM (was sold as a Minolta TC 1000 and can still be found on e-bay)<\/p>\n \u2022 a Sony FA-CS1AM (was sold as a Minolta OC 1100 and can still be found on e-bay). With the FA-CS1AM you can attach any system flash that has the Sony\/Minolta hotshoe but I only recommend those that have ADI (D) functions<\/p>\n FA-TC1AM<\/em><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n Other than the flashes the only things you will need now are as many Sony FA-EC1AM (was sold as a Minolta Cable ex) as you can get. The cables go between the Triple connector (FA-TC1AM) and the flash or AF-CS1AM and can be added to one another as extensions.<\/p>\n Once you have all the bits and pieces you can now connect any 3 ADI flashes to your Alpha with\u00a0 full TTL function and no need for a popup flash to fire them. For example you might want to use a Minolta Macro Ring Flash 1200 with 2 small 3600HSD flashes as fill or use a Sony HVL-F58AM as a key light and a sunpak pz40 as a fill flash. Basically it allows you to combine any 3 flashes and is very practical if one of these flashes doesn\u2019t support the Sony wireless system.<\/p>\n First off the cable set up isn\u2019t cheap but can be found for ok prices on E-Bay second hand. Secondly its time consuming to set up and Gets very expensive if you want to have a grater distance between the flashes (but I\u2019ll cover a solution for that latter). I can only home Sony continue to support this system with the new hot shoe.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I mentioned a triple connector for Sony flashes in an earlier post. This info is kind of old I dug it out of one of my old blogs and edited it a bit. But this is the set up I use to fire multiple flashes with one wireless trigger.<\/p>\n First up you will need a FA-CC1AM (also available as a Minolta OC1100)<\/strong><\/p>\n![\"4556879255_f937fe3369_o\"](\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.scottlewisphotography.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/4556879255_f937fe3369_o.jpg\")

\nThe third problem is that Sony have changed the hot-shoe for all future cameras so you will need an adaptor for this system to work on cameras with an ISO shoe system.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a> (more…) «TTL Cables.»” class=”more-link”>(more…)<\/span> «TTL Cables.»<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"spay_email":"","footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_is_tweetstorm":false},"categories":[132],"tags":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p1RSHE-EE","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.scottlewisphotography.eu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2520"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.scottlewisphotography.eu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.scottlewisphotography.eu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.scottlewisphotography.eu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.scottlewisphotography.eu\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2520"}],"version-history":[{"count":9,"href":"http:\/\/www.scottlewisphotography.eu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2520\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2578,"href":"http:\/\/www.scottlewisphotography.eu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2520\/revisions\/2578"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.scottlewisphotography.eu\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2520"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.scottlewisphotography.eu\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2520"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.scottlewisphotography.eu\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2520"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
