I have a Olympus OMD EM5 Mark II in an Olympus housing and one Sea & Sea YS D1 Strobe. I am looking to add a second strobe. They discontinued the YS D1 and I don't really want to spend the $700 for a YS D2J. Is there another strobe that I can buy that will work well with my set up? The YS 01? Any other suggestions?
 
Hi;

No, not really. The power and beam width will be different. Plus you'll struggle to balance them out, even on closer in subjects. The physical controls are different and you'll be constantly looking at one or the other to figure it out.
