I'm just guessing here... but is the context PC cord or PC cable? I have a Casio digital camera that works with an external flash, but it doesn't have a hotshoe. I use a PC cable to connect the flash to the camera.

I just want to know what the two letters "P C" means. Maybe power cord?
Anyone know?

"There are some sources which say that PC actually means 'Prontor Compur', since this socket was first introduced on these german shutters. Both companies (which probably were under common Zeiss ownership already) used the same socket."

Thanks to Google.
