Highly compact yet sporting a window just over an inch wide, the Vortex Defender-XL Micro Red Dot Sight 5 MOA Dotis designed to be tough, fast, and accurate in competition shooting. The 5-MOA red dot illuminates in eight daytime brightness levels and two that are compatible with night vision gear. The aspherical lens offers a distortion-free, virtually parallax-free sight picture with unlimited eye relief. Aggressive texture on the face of the sight allows you to rack your slide against any surface. The Defender-XL is motion-activated and shuts off automatically after 10 minutes. The battery installs on the top, so you don't have to re-zero your optic when replacing it (which won't happen often, considering the battery's 25,000-hour lifespan.)

Q: 5. What shoe cord did they use to achieve the dual TTL light setup in the photo? The shoe cord has a pass through TTL on top?

A: Off camera shoe cords cannot figure out TTL with two different flashes at two different places at the same time. So it never pass through TTL on top if you have two flashes. In a situation like that it needs to be setup via manual exposure. A cord like this Energizer was used: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1005408-REG/energizer_ene_ttlu_multi_fit_ttl_flash_cord.html I would recommend using a radio flash trigger and using a flash that has a radio receiver built in. This way you can have two flashes running TTL at the same time and you don't need a cord between them since radio is wireless.
