Hi there.

There are some manual Flash or Transmitter which Hot-Shoe have only 1 pin i.e. Trigger Pin. But there is no metal Hot-Shoe plate or any GND Pin.

How this works without GND?

So far I know for a Manual flash there should be at least two signal ... Trigger and GND (from Metal Plate). Like below:

Thanks.

Your top photo may be showing the unit upside down? Assuming that it is similar to the one shown in the link below (Third item).
