Canon G7X Mark II and Sea & Sea YS-01 Strobes Questions

[Joe Weaver]

Hello All!

I am about to pull the trigger on a set of YS-01 strobes to use with my G7X and I can't find what I'm looking for in the manual yet or searching here. So here's my questions. If anyone else has questions, feel free to tag in.

I intend to shoot in manual most of the time since from what I hear underwater TTL is iffy at best. That should also allow me to conserve camera battery by only firing the camera flash at the lowest power to trigger the strobes. How do I set that? I can't find manual flash power settings anywhere...

Thanks! I'm ready to step up my game.

I have the same setup. Go into the camera menu and scroll down to flash output. Change it to the lowest setting

Edit to add:. I'm on vacation right now and not near my camera. You may have to scroll over to the 2nd part of the menu to find it.
