Snorkelling or diving is pretty much the same for splits. You need the camera slightly submerged. I thought the swimming bands on the strobe arms a super idea. I did wonder though whether putting the housing on a swimming board would make it difficult to submerge. Sitting on the inside of a partially inflated BCD (so sitting on the BCD's back rest) was the method I'd found reasonably effective. You can play around a little to start with increasing the air in the BCD until you get the right level of buoyancy. You can also sort of rest on the BCD and push it down or angle it with your arms.

Dave, we were on Harmoni last year. Brilliant! Best liveaboard we’ve done.

I'm with Chris. A Retra diffuser cunningly fitted to the Backscatter strobe. Fiendish.

Do extended fast bursts of high power flashes underwater cause migraines or trigger epilepsy episodes for marine creatures? Just askin' for a friend.

There were certainly a number of reports some years ago of issues around the Sea & Sea D2 strobes. At the time some users thought the D2J resolved the problems. I don’t think there have been an unusual number of problems reported with the D3.

Retra have made a firmware update available through the usual download App channels including now the Google Play Store for Android users. This is for the Pro Max II. The update primarily allows the new App to connect to the Maxi strobe. The update also adds a Pilot Light Toggle Function. The firmware update includes v2.17 for the Pro Max, v2.4 for the Prime+ and v2.4 for the Pure. It also includes v4.2 for the ProX/PrimeX (renamed 3.13) and firmware 4.5 (renamed 4.3) for PRO/Prime 2nd generation. -
