Another Oly TTL question, I apologize

[normantr]

I have done some searching, but I am not sure if I understand completely. I have an Oly c5060 with an Oly pt-020 housing. Other than the Oly strobe, can any other strobe be used with the ttl cable connection. I am swaying towards sea&sea or ikelite, but would really like to use the ttl cable. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Yes, but you will need a 'Heinrichs Weikamp' Olympus TTL convertor ( http://www.mike-dive.de/ ). This convertor will work in hard-wired TTL with strobes like the Sea and Sea YS-60/90/120 and Inon Z220.

You will need a 'mike-dive' PT to Sea and Sea sync-cord as well.

For more info e-mail Mike (info at mike-dive.de). Even though his website is in German his English is quite good.
