kinda new at underwater photography and just got a ikelite housing and tray/handle for my canon sd550 and now want to buy a strobe. i was thinking about the ikelite ds-51 strobe. what do you think? also they offer 2 arms for the strobe one Ball Socket Arm system that can be moved around and the other that dosent look like it adjusts as much. is this a good set up for my camera or would you reccomend something else? i dont no much about this stuff and im going back to cozumel and plan to take lots of pics. thnks
 
I would go for the ball and socket system - its much more adjustable. If you decide you want the straight arm piece like shown below, I'll sell you a nearly new one for cheap (they're $60 new).
