Help! I just purchased the new Olympus E-PL2 camera with the PT-EP03 Housing. I previously owned a small S&S YS-17 strobe so I purchased an additional S&S YS-02 strobe to use with the new camera and housing. I tried yesterday to connect the strobes via fiber optic cables to the PT-EP03 housing and unfortunately, can't seem to get the strobes to fire. I have tried the "fill-in" flash setting as well as 1/64th. Does anyone have any suggestions or experience with S&S strobes and the Oly UW housings and PEN cameras? Please feel free to reply or PM me if you have suggestions. Thanks!
 
I was able to finally get them to fire, I had to try a new fiber optic cable. Can't wait to get into the pool and the lake to try out this new camera system. Am heading to Indonesia in May and want to be comfortable with this new setup before I get there. Thanks for your response!
