Canon 1950B001 OC-E3 Off Camera Shoe Cord 3

The Canon OC-E3 Off Camera Shoe Cord 3 is a dedicated accessory that lets you move a Canon Speedlite flash off the camera's hot shoe and position it up to 0.6 meters (2 feet) away while maintaining full electronic communication between the flash and camera body. This means all TTL metering, E-TTL II automatic exposure, and other flash functions remain fully operational — you get the creative benefits of off-camera flash without sacrificing any of the automation you rely on. The cord connects via Canon's standard hot shoe on both ends, ensuring a secure and precise fit.

Canon designed the OC-E3 as an upgrade over the earlier OC-E2, with improved internal construction for greater durability and enhanced sealing against dust and moisture. This makes it a more reliable option for photographers who shoot in varied environments, from studio sessions to outdoor events. The flash connector end includes a built-in tripod socket, allowing you to mount the Speedlite on a tripod or light stand for stable, repeatable off-camera flash positioning without needing a separate bracket or adapter. While the 2-foot cord length keeps this accessory best suited for close-range off-camera work — such as macro photography, fill lighting, or bounce techniques — it delivers that functionality with the build quality and compatibility assurance that comes with a genuine Canon product.
