The built in cord is for regular PC sync and will not do TTL. For that
you'll need a ttl cord to connect from base of BG2 handle to TTL Conn. 4
(OM-2N) TTL Conn. 3 (OM-2). 2S, 3Ti, 4, 4T, 4Ti have TTL connector built
into top cover.

| No. You will need a cord. The built-in is a two wire cord with a PC tip. I
| prefer the coiled 0.6m T cord, which is actually shorter than the 0.3m,
| which is uncoiled. You also need an M grip cord, if you're going to use a
| winder or motor drive with the grip button (strongly recommended).
