    Ion Z240 or S&S 110A

    I have the 110a's and have been very happy with them for the last couple of years. I just got a D7000 and the only drawback I know of is that the 110a's do not seem to work in ttl with the D7000. Sea and Sea confirms this on their website as well, possibly a firmware update for the D7000 will...

    Your fav macro lens(es) for D300s?

    I like the 60mm with a 1.4x teleconverter. It gives you enough working room to light the subject. Works really well for nudibranchs and smaller fish portraits. All photos taken with the 60 mm Nikon AF with Kenko 1.4x teleconverter. Brian

    Sea & Sea MDX-7000

    I finally took the plunge and sold my Olympus E-520 and picked up a Sea & Sea housing for the D7000 from the nice people at Bluewater. I made my first dive with it over the weekend and am very impressed with the ease of controls. Even with thick gloves the dials are easy to operate with...

    OLY 520 w/dual strobe INON in s-TTL

    I tend to get a slight underexposure with sttl with the 110a. Upping the flash compensation corrects this and I get a correct exposure. Its only about a 1/3 stop so easily fixed in Lightroom but I would rather get the exposure correct in the camera first. On the 110a you can use the dial to...

    OLY 520 w/dual strobe INON in s-TTL

    You need to make sure the Camera is in auto flash mode first and in manual. You can also increase the flash compensation. With my S&S 110a's I set my flash compensation to overexpose by 1/3 stop. Brian

    Wet lens for E-520/620 DSLR housing

    I have the Athena port for my 50mm and use an Ion wet lens with it occasionally. I also have the 1.4 teleconverter which is my favorite macro setup. Its a bunch of money for the teleconverter but it works great.

    Olympus E-5 Housing

    Fun-In e-mailed me to say that they should have housings by the end of the month and be able to ship out early February. I'm hoping to put in an order in about a month but still have that little voice in my head questioning the future of 4/3 but I have enough invested in lenses and ports at...

    Olympus E-5 Housing

    I found a Nexus housing for the Olympus E-5 on the Fun-in Taiwan site that is taking orders. I contacted the local Nexus supplier and they did not think that Nexus would be making a housing for the E-5. Does anyone have any feedback on the Fun-in Taiwan store? I'm a little weary about sending...

    Question: EPL1 White Balance Issue

    I spent about 1 minute editing this in Light Room as a black and white. The current version of Light Room has a pretty good noise reduction. Improvement, not sure but noise is less noticeable. Brian

    Question: EPL1 White Balance Issue

    You have a lot of noise especially on the red channel. I normally won't shoot anything higher than ISO 400 due to noise but I have the E-520, the EPL-1 may do a bit better. At 90 feet there will be very little red light, hence the noise. Without a strobe or another artificial source you will...

    Anybody used SnS 110a in TTL on an Olympus E-520

    My Olympus E-520 does not ttl at anything less than full flash at least via fiber optic trigger. I have no battery life issues even after 3 dives on the camera, the camera battery seems to outlast the strobe battery in any case. My understanding of ttl use underwater is that it only functions...

    Anybody used SnS 110a in TTL on an Olympus E-520

    Ardy, I use the camera in Manual. I started out with it in Auto but really you get much better shots in Manual. With the ttl Manual mode does not require many adjustments especially for macro shots. As a starting point when using the 50mm set the camera at 1/180, f18 iso 100 and adjust from...

    YS-110 and YS-110a Strobes

    I had one of each on my set up for the last year. I recently upgraded the my loan 110 with another 110a. T the 110a's performance is much better with respect to recycle time and optical ttl accuracy. The older 110's also miss firing far more often. The other unusual thing when using one of...

    Anybody used SnS 110a in TTL on an Olympus E-520

    I have a E-520 and use 2 YS110a's via fiber optic and the ttl works fine. I think they are referring to the ttl being not functional via the electronic sync cords. I think Athena has a converter if you really want the electronic sync cords but it is very expensive. I have found the fiber...

    Olympus E 5

    With DEMA next week I'm really hoping SeaTool makes a new back. They look really nice and will work with my Oly ports. A housing like my PT-05 would be great as well as I've had no problems with mine. I've got my fingers crossed! Adorama has E-5s in stock now too. I wonder if the E-5 will...

    E-620 and a sealife strobe

    The Sealife strobe should mount to the bottom of the housing, the housing will accept the standard tri-pod screws that the Sealife strobe uses as well. You will need to hook up the fiber optic cord to the camera's FO mount, you may need to get one of rubber plugs that except the FO cord for the...
