Canon camera flash extension cord?


I use the Canon 420EX flash with the 20D camera and want to mount the flash on a bracket. This requires a cable extension from the hot shoe to the flash. I read that the Canon brand extension cable is not reliable and often breaks after minimal use. Users do not recommend it. I also read that the Adorama clone for this cord does not always work with Canon Flashes. Does anyone have a solution? Thanks.

Your pretty much stuck with what you've read. I would go with a third party cord on this. I dont usually recomend third party stuff as usually Canon gear is better quality, but come on, its a cord.

Users having problems with some of those cords have 580exII's on them. Thats alot of weight to support on a hotshoe. Your 420 is a lot more manageable and you shouldnt have too many problems.
