Canon Off Camera Shoe Cord 2?

[herbie_53]

I have just bought a secondhand Canon Off Camera Shoe Cord 2.

I am wondering if the camera should still recognise the Canon Speedlite 430EX mk11 flash gun on the camera menu? when using the off shoe cord, as it does not. The flash fires off OK, and the ETTL seems to be working as it should, although the high speed sync doesn't work with the cord, may be this is normal I don't know.

If anyone uses a Canon Off Camera Shoe Cord 2 with a Speedlite 430EX mk11 I'd really appreciate it if you could check out the above.

Thanks in advance,

Chris.

Nothing like replying to your own post

Panic now over. All working now just as if the flash was fitted direct to the hot shoe
