What Are Sync Cords?

Many of your devices, such as your digital camera, MP3 player and smartphone have the ability to sync to your computer, tablet PC or another device. By syncing your devices together, you can transfer files between the devices. Some devices can sync wirelessly, but most devices use a sync cord

Several types of electronic devices have the ability to sync. For example, MP3 players, digital cameras, tablet PCs, external hard drives and smartphones such as the iPhone, Android devices, BlackBerrys and Windows Mobile handsets can sync to another device. Typically, you sync these devices to your computer. For example, by syncing your MP3 player to your computer, you can transfer MP3 from your computer's hard drive to your MP3 player

Sync Cords

Many modern electronic devices use a microUSB sync cable. A microUSB sync cable has a full-sized USB connector on one end and a microUSB connector on the other end. This allows you to connect a device that uses the microUSB port, such as a smartphone, to one of the USB ports on your computer. Some devices, such as the iPod and iPhone, have a specific sync cable made to fit the device. These sync cords have a USB connector on one end and custom-fit connector on the other end

What Are Sync Cords on Cameras?

The world of professional photography is packed with interesting and arcane pieces of equipment. Visit a photography store and you'll find bounce lights, gobos and hot shoes, just to name a few. While each of these pieces is a necessary part of the professional photographer's suite of tools, there is none quite so important as the sync cord

What a Camera Sync Cord Does

• A sync cord is a remote triggering device that connects peripheral equipment to the camera. It transmits a signal that triggers the other equipment to fire at the same second that the shutter snaps

Why Use a Sync Cord

• Imagine that your task was to photograph someone sitting on some rocks by the sea, staring into the twilit waves. The scene would be primarily dark in order to catch the moody feel of the twilight, but you would still want to illuminate the person's face in order to see it
• A flash unit mounted on the camera would illuminate the rocks and the waves and destroy the moody feel of the shot. Instead, you would mount a flash unit in the rocks, aimed so that it would light only the subject's face. A sync cord would connect the camera and the flash unit together. When the camera's shutter snapped it would send a signal down the cord and trigger the flash and your beautiful photo would be captured
• The sync cord is usually threaded into a socket on the camera body in order to make sure it's secure. The camera's onboard computer manages the task of sending an electrical impulse down the cord to trigger the flash unit. The electrical impulse is drawn from the camera's battery

Alternatives to the Sync Cord

• In some situations, running a cord from the camera might not be feasible
• One alternative is something called an optical slave unit. This device is a flash unit that triggers its own bright flash when it senses the light from another flash. You could use your camera's built-in flash, setting it at its lowest level so that it wouldn't disrupt the scene, to trigger the optical slave unit. Although it seems like there would be a delay, the optical slave unit is actually faster than the sync cord because the light travels at, well, the speed of light
• Another alternative is a radio-operated sync system. These work almost exactly the same as the sync cord except that a signal is sent via radio rather than down the cord. The flash unit is equipped with a receiver that reads the signal from the camera and triggers the flash
