Hey friends! I hope you're all having an amazing day :), I wanted some advice regarding my SL3, I shoot portrait photography and I found a studio recently to shoot in and they have a Neewer Vision 4 Wireless Flash and I know the SL3 isn't compatible due to the hotshoe so I wanted know does anyone know any loopholes to get around this? I don't want to HAVE to upgrade my camera if I don't have to. Thanks!

There aren't any loopholes to get around it. You'll have to use Canon EX or EL series speedlites. For compatibility only the EL-100 & EL-1 speedlite are compatible. Other EL series speedlites aren't compatible. They only work with certain EOS R series cameras.

3rd Party speedlites rely on the center contact. Which your camera lacks. Canon brand speedlite, macro lites and triggers don't need it. They probably never. So you'll have to upgrade your camera or use Canon's gear.
