I was wondering what is up with that weird gravatar??? I know 5am is early and I’m not looking my best at that hour, but I hope I don’t look like this! I might however make that face if I’m asked to do 100 pushups. lol

I strongly recommend that you turn the No Follow off in your comment section. I’ll watch Google Webmaster Tools, and if the links don’t show up after a couple of weeks — I won’t go back to that blog again. Another suggestion: you should have a Top Commentator widget installed. Do Follow and Top Commentator will ensure that you have a successful blog with lots of readers!

After reviewing the online User’s Manual for the Alpha 200, (on the SONY site for about a week – no longer posted) I found that it specifically avoided any mention of a PC-sync port. So, like you suspect, it’s just NOT there. Why in the world they would repeat this glaring mistake is still beyond me. With the manual’s removal … they may be redoing the manual.

Although, when I directly hook up my PC-sync cable between my A700 and one of my studio-strobes, the strobe starts going off intermittantly, whenever I touch the camera body.

My A100, with that third-party hot shoe, does NOT do this … so the problem appears to be limited to the A700 and some feedback level with the direct sync-wire.

This intermittant flashing does NOT happen with the PocketWizards Plus2s either, so you know my solution … and $400 later, no direct cabling. Something is fishy, there. I’m wondering is anyone else is having problems along these lines. It might explain why the PC-sync is missing on the A200. Who knows? It’s just what I have personally experienced.

It definitely will require some more research and probably access to another A700, for more exacting testing. I may even have to buy some kind of “buffer cable” to place inbetween the A700 and the Studio strobe, if I go back to direct. Heck, it could be a simple matter of ‘grounding’, but the cable should provide that. It’s very annoying … having that strobe constantly going off like that.

Anyway, that’s my story and I’m stickin’ to it.
