My camera doesnt have a PC connector. How can I trigger my new Photogenic lights?

If your camera does not have a PC connection, your Photogenic dealer can provide you with a hot shoe to PC adapter. Connect the sync cord to the light and then to the camera. All our lights have built-in optical slaves, so instead of using the sync cord, you can trigger the lights on-camera flash unit. If you have through-the-lens metering, be sure to turn it off or you will trigger the lights prematurely. You can also use infrared or radio remote triggering devices. We recommend wireless triggering when using any non-dedicated electronic flash with digital cameras. The reason is that in some cameras, line noise from the sync cord is not filtered out and can cause image distortion. For best results, we recommend radio remote triggering devices.
