c5060 and a flash

[clive francis]

found this and thought it would be useful to some folks here, who are deliberating a purchase:

Olympus, long ago dropped by the underwater industry for messing around with its TTL flash protocols, is back. The new PT-020 housing for the C-5060wz (expected late Dec 2003) will have a connector for external TTL flash, and a companion housing for the Camedia-dedicated FL-20 flash unit. Ikelite morover, appears to have devised a conversion circuit for the Camedia protocol, and its new C-5060 housing (Jan 2004) will have a bulkhead connector giving proper TTL control of the Ikelite DS-series Substrobes.
