I dont always want to take out my cactus v5 triggers when Im using off camera flash so I was wondering if any of these TTL cords will do the job between my k-50 and Yongnuo 560-II. They do say universal but just wanted to make sure.

Interested as well... even though, for that price, I'd rather buy the 560TX by Yongnuo...
They are also intruducing the MkIV iteration of their YN560, with triggering capabilities...

Thanks in advance

I have a SunPak TTL cable for Pentax that looks just like the second listing. I have used it successfully with a 645N, SF1, and my K-3.

It works fine. I just received my Opteka cord last week and have been using it with my AF-540FGZ quite a bit.
