Down the slippery slope you go

Housing? I have good information that Patima will be releasing a housing for the Nikon D80 very soon. The all aluminum construction and price equals good value for me. So in the mean time practice and practice above water is what i'll be doing for the next month.

Canon S80, WP-DC1 UW housing with Inon lens attachment, Sea and Sea YS25DX strobe, ultralight arms, Fisheye HG20DX Fix Light, Inon-165-M67 len will all be for sale after Nov26.

Hi BlueFrog,

I shoot the D1x (also 1/500 sycn) and while I think it's nice to have 1/500 flash sync, I still just don't see why it's that important given your example.

D70 ISO 200 1/400 F7.1. D200 ISO 100 1/200 f7.1. Same DOF, same exposure, more better ISO.

.

The difference between those two examples is that at ISO 200 strobes reach further than shooting at ISO 100.

Exposure will be different, but the distance the light from the strobe itself travels will not change.
