Hmmmm...it just occurred to me that the FGZ
II has a metal foot with the contacts inset from the metal portion. The Vello's shoe contacts are also inset. With the flash in manual mode and the foot seated on the cable's shoe, you should be able to measure voltage between the center pin of the Vello's foot and the contact for the side rail. If not, the pins on the flash foot don't extend far enough to make contact.
Added: One of the reviews on the B&H Web site is from a owner who successfully uses the cable with the AF540FGZII and a 645Z.
