Is there a port to attach this to a wireless trigger or do I need a female hot shoe?

It does have a trigger port but in my opinion the shoe mount has a faster response time than the port

It does have a port. I have used this flash with a wireless trigger and it works very well.

Hi Joshua,The device has a hotshoe plate, however it communicates with the camera via the pin connector. I don't see why you couldn't have another trigger in the hotshoe (ie flash trigger). The only think is that the satechi trigger will be dangling from the pun connection on the side of your camera.Maybe a dual hotshoe mount could work.CheersRene

The trigger I use successfully is the PocketWizard PLUS II Transceiver. I own a pair and well worth having.

Absolutely, it simply connects to the hotshoe or the auto trigger port on the side for remote firing. These things are excellent!

Yes. In the picture you can see a round piece at the bottom of the unit. This can be tightened down and will hold the trigger in place on the hot shoe.

it does not. It has the the regular female ports that you can buy a adapter for.

The Trigger Trap should include the dongle and an adapter cable specific to your camera. The adapter connects to the camera via the USB port. Check the Trigger Trap web site for the manual; it's got lots of tips.

Can I use this this with a Gear Head wireless mouse that came to me without a receiver of any sort?

No to the first answer. I never tried triggering via USB but I doubt that unless you maybe find some other software that can do that.

a usb3.0 A-male to A-Female Cable may be useful. such as http://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-A-Male-A-Female-Extension-meters/dp/B00B3P15M8/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1383201214&sr=8-3&keywords=usb3.0+A-male+to+A-Female+Cable

If you have a trigger with a receiver that has a 1/4" plug, you can use that. The receiver has to have the 1/4" plug to plug into the unit and you can set up you trigger to your receiver accordingly. The unit also has a slave feature, so if you have a flash mounted on the hot shoe or elsewhere, it will trigger the unit when it flashes, but you have to be careful when using the slave, as anyone with a flash on their camera will trigger it.

It has a 30 pin proprietary port. You can get an adapter from the 30 pin male to a regular sized USB female port but beware the cheap ones. They either do not fit or do not allow a flash drive to be recognized.

There's no shoes involved. Is there such a thing. Anyhow the triggers (transmitter) is not attached to the reciever. Therefore U are able to move your camera around. If u have continuous lightings , U don't need a trigger unless u want more lighting. I hope this is what u are asking.

No reason not. Howevery double check to make sure your flash is on the compatible flash list and sometime if the flash needs specific cable to fit the data port then you will need to have the right canon cable to fit it. The trigger itself is a reliable device to send the sync signal.

Hi drew. Most of the triggers have a PC connector. Use that cable to plug in into the 2.5 connector on the lamp (sync) it should work perfectly.

You don't have to attach to the hot shoe. The receiver connects to camera via the connector on the left, so I hang the receiver to the strap if I have to use the flash. And it still works fine

These have female connectors.. You will need male connectors to plug into them
