Hi, folks.
Question: Is there an UW strobe - Ikelite, whatever - that can be used with a Nikon 1 housing (WP-N1) for the Nikon J1? Photos, not video.
I'm assembling an UW digital package of a J1 with the Nikon-specific housing. But the strobe unit costs around $750. Since I got the camera and housing for much less than that, I'm seeking an affordable alternative.
Beneath the hot shoe (which is not hot) are two transparent ports that seem like (?) they could be used to trigger a slave. (See image).
Any thoughts?
Also considering an LED video light, which I realize is less than ideal, but there are a ton of them out there.
Thanks!
