Help with TTL converter for Oly C-8080 and Ike DS 125

[calypsonick]

I am brand new to TTL and need some help:

I have a TTL converter for my Oly C-8080 and would appreciate some tips on what settings to use ?

My dual DS 125 set up seems to be giving me way too much output for TTL, it is acting as if it were on manual giving me the same output regardless of what aperture or shutter speed. I have the camer flash setting on external flash. Is this correct ?

Thanks in advance.

Which housing and converter are you using ?

I had the same issue with my 7070 / 5060 / PT-027 and the Matthias converter with a S&S YS 90 strobe. It mostly affected macro and close up shots - blown out highlights . I found that by adjusting the flash intensity to -0.7 solved the issue. Otherwise your external flash setting is OK.
