I am looking for an underwater strobe and/or light that does a decent job at BOTH macro & wide angle, and ideally 1 that would also have a light I could use for night diving (an ALL in 1 light/strobe for EVERY situation). I only want to add 1 light to my camera as to keep it as light & simple as possible. I have a TG6 with an Olympus PT-059 housing. I am an amateur who enjoys taking photos & occasional videos of anything I see. I mainly dive in the Caribbean. I know this is asking a LOT of one light & I don't expect professional results, just better than shots with no added light at all. :)

I am looking at 5 lights as of now. Any chance you can tell me if any of these would be appropriate for macro, wide, & anything in between & if you would recommend 1 over the other & why?
1) Backscatter HF-1 (hybrid)
2) AOI UIS P1 Ultra (hybrid)
3) Marelux Apollo S
4) Sea & Sea YS-D3 Duo
5) Ikelite Ecko Fiber

TIA! Any help will be greatly appreciated!
