Any way to get a S&S YS 50 strobe(click link Google Image Result for http://www.cpsc.gov/cpscpub/prerel/prhtml00/00016b.jpg ) going with my A570IS Canon housing(I think the YS 60 can be .....but)...The reason i ask is I already own the YS 50 with my old MM II EX camera......(I think I know the answer, but.......)....TIA for any help or ideas to get either WA 16 mm lens or YS 50 strobe going........
 
Joe- you don't need no stinkin' strobes! Your pictures are gorgeous! (so is your wife!)
 
The Heinrichs-Weikamp optical digital adapter LINK should do the trick. Make sure to get the right one for your strobe if it has a Sea&Sea plug (LINK) on the cord or a Nikonos one (LINK).

I got one and it works great with my YS-60 and Nikon P4 (at least it's worked great playing around topside, It's finally getting wet tomorrow). Shoots the preflash out and everything.
