Matt, thanks for confirming this. Did you ever find out if the strobe's TTL slave sensor can pick up infrared?

Hi, +1 to DesertEagle comment. The Heinrichs Weikamp TTL adapter will be your best bet It turns your YS-60 into an optical TTL slave. The "TTL" bit is very important bit here, they also have the lower cost "digital slave" adapter for Sea&Sea 4 pin strobes but that's not what you want. You want...

Sharky, I have no experience with the YS-25, but I do own a Sea&Sea DX-2G After reading the YS-25 user manual PDF online, I'm fairly sure that the YS-25 is compatible with your camera but it does not have automatic TTL exposure. You have to adjust the strobe power level manually using the...

Well OK it's official. My DX-2G just arrived before the weekend. Conclusion, it works flawlessly with my dual strobe setup of Sea&Sea YS-50 TTL/S and YS-60 TTL/S using the Sea&Sea dual Y sync cord, and Heinrichs Weikamp digital TTL adapter. I mean really spot on - at aperture of f/4.1 to f/8 and...

It will be interesting indeed because even if you could find a way to mount it, the MMIIEX wide angle lens is designed for full-frame 35mm cameras with short flange-to-film distance. Whereas your application of such a lens would most likely be as a wet mount on a digital compact camera with a...

Thanks Matt. I'm glad to hear that! This further confirms (whew!) that when my unit finally arrives, the whole setup should pretty much work as you've just proven. The old Sea&Sea YS-50 and YS-60 TTL/S unfortunately do not allow for fine tuning of manual exposure. You can only go either full...

Hi Matt, I can't 100% vouch on this but it might be worth a shot. I look at the YS-01 specs online. My guess is that if you put it into the DS-TTL mode (instead of just normal slave) then it would replicate the flash as well as the PRE-FLASH emitted by your DX-2G built-in flash. And if it's a...

Curious - does anyone know if any of the GF1 10bar housing ports can be used together with the Olympus M.Zuiko 9-18mm? I mean will it in theory fit, with no optical obstructions or vignetting, zoomed out at its widest angle? And it doesn't matter whether the zoom gear works or not - you'd...

Thanks CoolTech Aren't the 2Gs (including the underwater housing) out for about a year already? I'm just looking in case there are early adopters who decide to change their minds and want to cash out ;-) I'm keen for the DX-1G as well actually. I'm just a little worried about the 1G RAW...

Looking for a used Sea & Sea DX-2G camera and housing set Will pay upwards to $700 for the set, depending on the condition of course Also looking for the 16mm converter lens so will pay more if you also have this I'm based on New Zealand but will pay for all shipping fees and take care...

Hi ScubaHill, is the memo mouse still available or is this already sold out? Cheers- M

Hi, I'm looking for a Uwatec Datatrak memo mouse to hook up with an old 2nd hand Aladin Air Z Nitrox hoseless wrist computer I have purchased recently I live in AUCKLAND, NEW ZEALAND and of course would cover all applicable shipping cost, take responsibility for knowing my local custom...

I don't know what the water is like in Wellington, but I suppose the coldest I've been diving here near Auckland is around 15 degrees and the two-piece 5mm I have is definitely not enough! Even tried layering with a 1-2mm one piece wetsuit underneath, but didn't help all that much I've been...

You may be interested to check out this operator as well Google: "Poor Knights Bluzone" (sorry I can't post URLs yet as I've made less than 5 posts) They have a specialised speedboat which I personally have not been on yet. I've only been diving to Poor Knights with Dive! Tutukaka so far, but...

Hi, Congratulations on the very well taken photos - I can't imagine how terrific it must be to have the opportunity to do a liveaboard at Poor Knights together with a professional underwater photographer! Was that just a coincidence when you met Richard, or did you actually sign up for an...

I've PM'ed regarding the Memo Mouse, thanks

My name is Mario and I'm based in Auckland, New Zealand I'm a PADI adventure diver with around 20 dives at time of joining this forum, would consider myself as embarking on the 'serious recreational' journey - no plans for tech diving yet! I'll be going around to say hello but any...
