SC-29 TTL Coiled Remote Cord

Approx. 9-ft. coiled cord with built-in AF-Assist Illuminator for placement of the SB-910, SB-900, or SB-700 off camera. The SC-28/SC-29 makes off-camera TTL flash control easy and assured. With the Nikon D-SLRs, the SC-29 also works as an external AF-assist illuminator.
$112.00*SRPSRP (Suggested Retail Price) listed only as a suggestion. Actual prices are set by dealers and are subject to change at any time.
SC-29 TTL Coiled Remote Cord 5 5 1 1
Eliminates guesswork I recently jumped from the world of film to digital when I went from a faithful F5 to the D700. The F5 and an old Ftn still sit on a shelf in my library ready to go whenever I need them and over the years, a few other Nikon F series went as trade-ins for several newer versions. As reluctant as I was to go digital, the D700, SB900 and the SC-29 cord all helped to make the transition fairly seamless and opened new chapters of creativity for me. My bag full of Nikon glass all made the transition and a new 400mm zoom also joined the team. The seasonal magazine that I publish has taken on a new look which seems to have pleased the readers. It also helps to have a good local Nikon dealer who has guided me through each step of the way. August 9, 2010

Was this helpful?helpful0unhelpful0
I'm using the cord with a D7000 & a SB-600. Sometimes I am at concerts where flash photography is not allowed and low light makes focusing difficult. And so I'd like to use the more discrete red AF assist lamp versus the on-board camera AF assist light. I'd like to keep things from getting too bulky so I'd rather not attach my SB-600 flash directly on camera just to use the red focus assist . Is there a way to attach the the SC-29 cord without having a flash on the end of it and have the cord's red AF Assist work? Splice or clip some wires? Thanks.

What are the key situations in which one would use the SB-29? It seems that in most situations the Nikon wireless CLS system would suffice.

There doesn't appear to be a manual for the cord and what I did find online appears to be in anything but English and so small I can read it anyway. It looks like one side sits in the shoe horn, but I"m not sure how the other side attaches to the SB-600 since there are no ports.

Answer: 
You have to mount the SB-600 in the hot shot of the SC-29 and the other connector goes in the hot shoe of the camera.

Answer: 
Yes, you can use the D700 with the SB-800. When the SC-29 sync cable is used for off-camera flash photography, correct exposure may not be achieve in i-TTL. We recommend that you choose spot metering to select standard i-TTL flash control.

Is the SC-29 AF-assist illuminator located at the camera's flash shoe or is it located on the external flash's shoe?
I am unable to tell from the picture where the SC-29 AF-assist is located.

Why would I need an SC-29 with AF-assist when my SB-910 already has a powerful AF-assist?
I read that only one of the two AF-assists can be used at the same time.
Could you please explain why I would need the SC-29 with an SB-910.
Thank you.
