Ikelite Substrobe 50 (orange) with Canon S110

[nzpw]

Hi all

I currently run a Canon s110 in an Ikelite housing with an Ikelite Substrobe 50 (the old orange model). I use an Ikelite sensor (it has Ikelite Slave TTL sensor written on the side) to trigger the strobe from the camera's internal flash. I run the camera in manual mode.

My question is - can I run a second Ikelite Substrobe 50? And if so, how? I'm reasonably new to photography and have an opportunity to get this second strobe cheap...

Any help would be much appreciated!

You probably have to get a 2nd slave sensor. Unless you come across the sensor cheap, it will still add up.

I would presume you can get some of those budget strobes like Intova used for cheap. They use fiber optics to pick up your camera's internal flash, and at least have a light sensor on it so you don't always have to be fiddling around with f-stops on your camera.

I'd get a more powerful (single)strobe going-----than 2 'weaker' ones.......
