Flash Sync port on Canon RP? What cable should I use?

[gbiff1]

Guys,

My friend has a 5D Mark II and was willing to lend me her studio flash.

Turns out the cable is PC/P2... and my RP doesn't have that port...

I Googled but I don't find any suitable cable for doing so...

Can someone indicate me the cable I should use for that purpose? With images if it's not asking too much...

Thank you!

I have never heard of PC/P2 but PC sync connections are very common. You can buy an PC adapter for your hotshoe. Then just add a PC cable for the length you need.

So there's no way I can connect it to a USB-C port or P2?

USB-C, no. What is a P2?

The same as we have in headphones

The Vello adapter has both connections. They call 3.5mm (1/8”) mini phono port and a PC socket sync port. I have never heard of a 3.5mm plug being called P2.

If using 3.5mm (1/8) cables, be sure to check if the equipment would require mono or stereo.  Some equipment could get damaged if using the wrong type.
