Attaching the Flash Connection for External Strobes

When using an external strobe,
connect the housing hotshoe
connector. Slide the connector into
the hotshoe mount on the camera
from the back of the camera as
shown. Slide the connector
forward until it stops. Make sure
the hotshoe is all the way
forward in the camera mount to
assure a good connection. Due to
limited clearance between the
camera hotshoe mount and the
housing back, the hotshoe
connector should be attached
before the camera is secured with
the mounting bolt.
