The hotshoe foot on the flash, not the camera. So yes, you will.

I tryed all combinations.....canon flash or cheap $20 Chinese, I can't get this to fire as you suggested. Perhaps my understanding is flawed. Would you please try your system and confirm if this actualy works . I also would like to use flash & EVF for bird photography. Thank you

You need a flash unit with a built-in optical slave module, or a separate optical slave unit you can attach to it's hotshoe or PC cable.

What triggers the flash?
