5060

[BigBoB]

I just picked up a 5060 and thinking of sticking it into an ike housing. Would you go with an ike ds-125 or some equivalent or better inon or other mfg?

Ike's housings for the 5060 offer TTL with their strobes, so I think getting a DS-125 is a no-brainer.

Since I have an Ike housing with a DS-125 strobe......I agree.

I'm looking at strobe purchase in a month or two, and was really going between the 50 and the 125. I handled both at Backscatter and actually preferred the 50. For someone new to photography, are the 50s worth having? I liked the size and price and they seemed easier for a noob to use.

Go with the DS-125. The 50 is a nice strobe, but the DS-125 is much more powerful, has a modeling light, and a wide angle of coverage.
