Thanks,
I always shoot on Manual with the camera on RAW. I usually underexpose the shots alittle. Usually pretty set at f2.8-5.6, 60-160 shutter speed, ISO 100 I have a hardwired, FL20 flash. Most of those photos were taken with that. I later added a Sea&Sea 16mm WA lens and a 2nd Sunpak strobe. I'm seriously entertaining the idea of buying that Athena cable from Ryan's and purchasing the YS110 to replace the FL20. I seem to be following in LarryC's footsteps with the strobes but you won't catch me dead with his homemade Locline rig
Anyway, I'm pretty excited. I just got back from 1 dive on a business trip in Hawaii and got some really good fish portraits. Once I figured out how to get the fiber optic cable attached correctly to the FL20 things worked pretty good.
BTW...nice aquarium!
Later,
Gary

Some new photos:

Here is the evolution of my single arm homemade tray into a dual arm tray.
The underwater photos were made on a trip to Bonaire at the end of February.
Even with a comparatively weak strobe such as the YS-25, with two of them you can get some decent coverage. Wide angle images were made with a Sea & Sea 20mm lens. It has a bayonet mount for the Motor Marine II. I originally purchased it for use with a Sony MPK housing. I made the adapter mount ring from nylon for use on the Olympus PT-030 housing.

Gary, nice job on the #1 and #7 eel shots and the Turtle pic is beautiful. John, the Tiger Grouper on the propeller is a terrific picture, and I really liked the puffer with the two boxfish as well.

Thanks Larry,
I ended up buying something a little cheaper, more manual than the YS110. I got an incredible deal on a YS27DX. I'll let you know how that goes!

ce4..If I had it to do over again, would have gotten the YS27 myself. In fact, I saw one on sale just after I purchased my second YS25 (which was also at a good price).
I find myself getting task loaded. Sometimes twisting the wrong knob, taking my strobe off the the proper flash synch instead of adjusting the output. With two strobes this can happen twice as often.
Hanks Larry, you are a SP-350 inspiration.
