Is it possible to purchase a separate cable to attach this to a different brand flash? What is the name of the connector going into this unit?

If you are good with electronics then yes you could potentially use another connector for a different flash. I wouldn't advise it though. It is just the CZ2 connector that cannon has used for sometime. The cable is similar to that of a phone handset. It is hardwired to the pack.

No. The connector is wired into the pack and fits most yongnuo and canon flashes. It is not removable/interchangeable.

As stated in previous answers, the connector is wired directly to the battery pack. It's the same type of cable as the wired phone handsets but better; I don't find myself untangling this cable like I do my office cable. The connector is not an interchangeable nib, but a nib for Canon's 580 and 600 flash. To get this pack to work with other flashes you would have to either 1) get an adapter (good luck) or 2) chop off the tip and wire your adapter of choice to the cable (not recommended since it can fry your flash unit if you mess up the soldering).

Sorry, I've never heard of that flash unit. Because of its rounded shape at the ends making it difficult to give you an answer you can decide with, I suggest you check with the manufacturers of both Stofen and your flash.

You are going to need either a cord http://www.amazon.com/Canon-OC-E3-Camera-Shoe-Cord/dp/B000OEP3F4/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid;=1370724162&sr;=8-5&keywords;=canon+external+flash+cord or a wireless solution. Something like this Yongnuo RF-602 2.4GHz Wireless Remote Flash Synchronized Trigger for Canon 580EX II, 580EX, 540EZ, 520EZ, 430EZ, 430EX, 420EX, 420EZ, 380EX CamerasI got both. Both do the job. Cord is a bit more reliable because wireless might get interference once in a while.

There shouldn't be no problem for them to work together. Those cheap products work on the same channels.The brand of your flash doesn't matter at all actually

The base connector of this flash is the standard Sony flash pin pattern. I can't say for certain that it will work, but because of this pin pattern, I suspect it probably does. You might go to the Metz site and look up this flash and check their compatibility list.

Sorry, I don 't know. Since it is a Sony, I presume the flash attach point is the same & so would assume so, but the key word is "assume..."

not totally sure , but what i do know is you need to have another flash hooked up to camera in order for it to work at least its that way on my olympus OMD

You'd mount your flash to your bracket with it's own transceiver. Or perhaps your camera and flash have a control port to link together by a cable?

I am using inexpensive triggers from cowboy studio. The trigger should be universal to fit in this hot shoe adapter and the receiver will depend on the brand/mount of your flash.Take a look on these links:CowboyStudio NPT-04 4 Channel Wireless Trigger for External Speelights with 1 Trigger and 2 Receivers (NPT-04+extra receiver)http://www.cowboystudio.com/category_s/460.htm

A flash cord is provided, but I don't know if it is compatible with that camera. I'm sorry I wish I knew

As CoCo and Geof already answered, your 800 should be fine. You connect with the supplied cable(s). It's a circular threaded type connector which all mid to high level flash systems use. The threaded connection reduces/eliminates accidentally unplugging the unit.

Hi Brad, it would depend on the type of shoe mount the flash is compatible with. You can use this mount adapter if the flash is compatible with the Multi Interface Shoe. Thanks_Mitch

I believe it's compatible with any brand because since it is off camera flash. You can use it via sync cord or wireless trigger.

You have 2 kind of cables who fit with the flashes an the PB820: canon or nikon. If the yongnuo flashes use one of this, ok.

Provided the contacts are correct (Canon in my case) for the camera and for the flash, then yes it should work. However, you might consider a better quality cord for your higher end flash unit.

This flash has to be attached to standard connector port on top of the camera.

I can't recall but if you buy a short synch cable (you can buy them here on amazon for about $5 each) then the question is moot. Because you can hang the flash trigger where ever you want or need to so its not in the way. I have several soft boxes and use that solution all the time to get my flash to fit and function properly
