I use Sony kit and all the flash guns in the range are wireless - doesn't that negate the need for cable sync? The only cord I use for mine these days is the remote shutter cable.

Sony kit uber expensive, I got the cheap ebay china flashes, use off camera on tripods for portraits etc but wanted to sync with cables rather than investing in a set of wireless slaves etc (expensive also) photography on a budget you see.

I used to have a A350 and the Flash was wireless. As Jazafeen says Sony DSLRs have built in wireless controllers that work really well - I never had any use for a cord.
