The PocketWizard HSFM3 is a hot shoe to miniphone cable designed to trigger standard hot shoe flashes from a PocketWizard radio. Ideal for flashes without a dedicated sync port, it provides a straightforward way to integrate a wider range of speedlights into your wireless setup. With a 3.5 mm mono miniphone connection on one end and a standard hot shoe on the other, the HSFM3 allows you to mount your flash directly onto the adapter and trigger it remotely via your PocketWizard receiver. Who this is for Photographers using PocketWizard systems who want to trigger hot shoe flashes that lack a sync port, or who need a simple manual triggering solution. At a glance 3.5 mm mono miniphone to standard hot shoe 3ft (91 cm) straight cable Designed for manual flash triggering Works with most single-pin hot shoe flashes Compatible with a wide range of PocketWizard radios Includes 1/4"-20 female thread for mounting How it works The HSFM3 connects your PocketWizard receiver to a flash via a direct cable. The 3.5 mm mono miniphone plug connects to the PocketWizard, while the hot shoe mount holds your flash securely in place. Once connected, the PocketWizard triggers the flash via a single-pin signal. As this is a manual connection, flash power must be set directly on the flash itself. The integrated 1/4"-20 female thread allows you to mount the adapter onto a light stand or bracket, keeping your setup stable and properly positioned. Why choose this product If your flash doesn’t have a sync port, this cable provides a reliable workaround without needing additional adapters or complex setups. It’s a practical tool for expanding compatibility across different flash brands and models, especially in mixed lighting setups.
