Hi Everyone:

I just got the Canon G9 and Ike housing and twin Ike 125 strobes. I started out with one strobe and it worked well in TTL but with 2 every shot is so underexposed that it's almost as if there's no strobe. When I go to manual it works fine. How do you have to arrange your settings for TTL to work? I'm on location and missing a lot of great shots!

Thanks,

Mel
 
I contacted Ikelite and they said that the little circuit box that houses the TTL conversion electronics get pinched too tight, and that I should loosen the screws on the box. I couldn't do that until I got home, and it seems to work pretty well now, although it did cut out again once. This certainly doesn't leave one with confidence in one's equipment.
