Hi everyone,
I'm trying to nail down an equipment package for a trip to the Socorro Islands.
I currently have a Nikon 1 J4, which is a phenomenal housing around a decent camera (with excellent AF), with a terrible 1/60th flash sync.
My question is that it seems likely that most encounters with the big pelagics (whale sharks, giant mantas, smaller sharks, etc) at the Socorros will be 5+ ft away, so should I even get all worked up about A: getting something like twin YS-D2's and/or B: getting a camera with a better flash sync. Would strobes even be of use in this type of environment?
