A substrobe for all seasons.
Ikelite Substrobes (underwater flash guns) cover almost every eventuality. You can buy a Substrobe as part of a package, tailored to suit your camera system; or you can put together or extend your own system by buying individual system components. A comprehensive range of sync cables, mounting arms, trays, and adapters covers all of the requirements of the SLR, Digital Camera, or Nikonos user, and allows mixing of equipment from different manufacturers. Dual TTL flash systems can be built using either a Y-cable, or by using an Ikelite TTL Slave sensor.

Putting together a flash system:
Choose a substrobe with the same or greater angle of coverage as your widest lens. Choose an output level according to your ISO-speed requirements. Unless the Substrobe is supplied as part of a package, you will also require a sync cable suitable for your camera or housing; and an arm and a camera tray. Ikelite SLR housings come with a suitable tray; and a range of adapters is available from Ikelite, Ultralight and TLC for other makes of SLR housing.

If you require a flash system for a digital compact camera, note that many housings do not have an electrical sync connector. In such cases, an external strobe must be triggered from the internal flash via a slave sensor. Most digital cameras also use a pre-flash to determine exposure, and this will mis-trigger a conventional slave system. The Ikelite DS-series strobes can be used with the 4100.5 TTL slave sensor; and give full digital camera compatibility by reproducing the pre-flash as well as the main flash.
