But I want to be able to use it OFF the camera , with an extension cord. I heard it would work in TTL mode with a Nikon SC 17 cord. Or is there a Leica cord dedicated to this remote use ? ====================================================================== Jo, You're correct in saying that the Nikon SC-17 will work for off-camera TTL flash, with either the Leica M6 TTL or Leica R cameras. This is because the layout of pins on the hot shoe and the flash foot happens to be the same for both Nikon and Leica. The end of the SC-17 that connects to the flashgun is fitted with a tripod thread, so it's quite handy for parking the flashgun. Leica, as far as I know, does not make such a cord.
