Hello to all;
I need to add a flash to my Nikon L3 / Fanasea FL3 combo and have been looking at the Sealife SL960D and the Bonica Neon Digital. After reading through Flash Dance, it seems the Sealife is a well know item. On the other hand, I have seen no info here on the Bonica. Anyone with some experience with both? From what I can gather, here are the pros and cons...
Sealife - PRO=appears to be a solid performer for the price.
CON=has a single seal. Flood the battery compartment, flood it all.
Bonica - PRO=Has a double seal, but I'm not sure this means the battery is seperate from the electronics.
CON=No sync cord - could be problematic seeing the built in flash depending on conditions. sync could also be unreliable also depending on conditions.
I believe both units have similar GNs. Sealife is 20, and I have not seen specs on the Bonica.
Thanks for any help you can offer!
