Hi,
I'm in a quandary about which strobe to buy.
I've got an Olympus TG4 and casing and I've narrowed my options down to the S&S YS-01 or the YS-D2. As much as I want the YS-D2 the cost of the YS-D2 really is stretching me budget-wise at the moment - it really is more than I would like to spend.
Am I going to be disappointed if I only get the YS-01? At the moment I'm only using a light with my camera.
I am really keen on macro (been to Lembeh a couple of times and looking at going to Anilao sometime soon too) but my next dive destination is Coiba, so much more of a WA place.
Looking out into the future I have my beloved Olympus OMD EM5 as well (and a variety of lenses) but I don't have a housing for it.... ...yet - and I'm almost too scared to put it in a housing in case it floods. Ultimately I probably will buy a housing for it (and get another camera body) and it would be great to have a rig with two strobes on it. At that stage it would be nice to have two strobes the same - or would it be ok to have a YS-01 and a YS-D2 together? Are two YS-01's a good combination?
Any advice appreciated! Have a great Easter!
