S400 has no way of controlling the internal flash power.

clgsamson:yes, big improvement, no question about it.
ScubaMarc:This would be true, if U were able to turn off the internal flash of the camera. But the flash is needed to set off the ds125 optical sensor. The fiber optic cable allows the user to fully block the internal flash and still fire the stobe.
The canon case has no hard wire to set of the strobe.
Gussy:Ikelite told me that I have to get the "Manual Controller" as the fiber stuff is not compatible with the Canon housing. Their website explains the Manual Controller but I'm still really confused about what it is...heck I don't even know what the fiber stuff is?
Nearest I can think of (Beach) is in Batangas, 3 hours from Manila. Give me a heads up and we'll go diving in Anilao...Gussy:Hey Caloy!
Do you know of a nice spot near Manila where during low time you can wade among the tide pools and take pictures? It's nice to sometimes do without the scuba gear. I'm going to be there sometime in July. Hopefully it doesn't rain on me.
Thanks!
Gus
Yes Gussy, its a nice strobe. I have one D2000w...Gussy:Inon? Another option then.
