Matt, the auto focus with the Megadap ETZ21 Pro adapter worked pretty well, but I want to do a few more dives with it to give it a more finale approval.

Going from a Nikon D850 to Z8 my Seacam converted Nikonos R-UW 13 became unusable as there is no working solution currently available for a F-mount lens with the old fashion autofocus to work via an adapter a Nikon Z mount or any other mount for that matter. To bring it back to life for the second time I just had Issac convert from a Nikon F mount to Sony mirrorless E mount using a Sony FE 50mm f/1.8 Lens ($198.00 from B&H) as a doner lens. From there, I purchased a Megadap ETZ21 Pro Sony E – Nikon Z adapter (price point of $249.00) to provide a means for these two different mounts to effectively work together. Was this endeavor worth it? Dam straight it was. Here are two images from a battery testing in ocean, not a pool to see what that this lens can do while shooting at wide apertures from F/2.8 to F/6.3. Note, the two images here were shot at 1/200 sec at F/3.2. Neither have undergone any cropping or de-fishing, I did however reduce the file a bit so they would load faster.

I am selling two different model Kraken Sport Quick Disconnect Arm segments. The first one is a KR-BBQD Double Ball Quick Disconnect Arm (SKU: KR-BMQD-1) with a standard 1-inch ball at each end. The second one is a KR-BMQD BaII to YS mount Quick Disconnect Arm (SKU: KR-BMQD) Made from anodized aluminum and stainless, these Quick Disconnect arm segments provide a means to quickly and easily take off your strobe or focus light to get creative. Both are in excellent condition – both functionally and cosmetically. Selling price: $25 each, or $40 together, which includes free shipping in the USA.

insomniac you are the 8th person I have heard who has had sync issues with the Turtle TTL converters. I would not be quick on blaming the strobes in that case.

The Yongnuo YN560Li Lithium Speedlite on camera flash uses two 18650 Rechargeable Li-ion Batteries.

Since day 1 when Retra introduced their underwater flash system, we were advised to use Eneloop pro AA Rechargeable NiMH Batteries which individually have a battery voltage of 1.2 V with 2550 mAh / 3.06 Wh Now with 8 of these batteries bundled together you then have 9.6 V, but your battery capacity is still going to provide 2550 mAh / 3.06 Wh. Whereas with 8 EBL AA Li-ion batteries which have a battery Voltage of 1.5V with 2200mAH / 3.3 Wh individually are bundled together will then have a total voltage of 12V, yet the battery capacity for all 8 together remains at 2200mAH / 3.3 Wh. While it was advised to stay away from the latter, now comes Retra’s new Power Vault Li-Ion battery pack which is stated to provide 7.2V with a battery capacity of 5555.56 mAh / 40 Wh. To me, this is a bit of a head scratcher.
