The easiest way is to use a standard Metz sync cable and connect that to the pc flash connector on the Nikon. This is the way I use them on my D200. The sync cables are available on EBay pretty cheap.
Just the regular Metz pc sync cord. Connect that to the sync connector on the side of the D200. The trigger voltages are fine. Set the camera to manual, 125th of a second. Set the slider on the back of the flash to the film speed you set on the camera. Use the "auto" slider to pick the "C" setting that approximates the distance you're shooting, and read the f stop off the scale. Set that on the camera. Try a test shot or two and adjust f stop, C setting, or film speed if it needs tweaking. Slow the shutter speed if you want more ambient light in the picture. Or of course meter it with a hand held incident light meter. I just did some shooting at a local horse show. Was in the stands so couldn't meter. Took some test shots of the people setting up the ring, and adjusted so when the competitors rode out I was pretty much on.
Hi Vilas,
All of those cables will not do.
Your Nikon D90 has no PC Socket.
Buy a NIKON AS-15 and then just hook Flash Sync Cable to AS-15.

Im not sure that you can get full TTL with this analogue flash. If you can then SC300 should be OK. (I have the Nikon D80 and TTL is not possible with metzcl4 but who needs it)!
Yes, the 60CT-4 works with the Pocketwizards.
Yes, they will work by connecting the Metz's cable into the PC of your camera.
To get longer life out of the flash tube, don't use full manual all the time. Like shooting more than 300 in less than 15 mins/day.
Just dail those number down.
The Metz 60CT-4 uses Accu 60-38 4.5Ah @6V Pb battery. Charging system is difference from NiMH battery.
Beside the voltage is only 1.2VDC per cell on NiMH battery. Four cells will have a total of 4.8VDC. If you got five (5) cells: 1.2 X 5 = 6.0VDC. Do not charge these cells with Metz. Use NiMH Charger for NiMH battery.
