Ikelite does, but you may need to also get converters that go from Ikelite back to Nikon. Or contact them directly about a custom cable.

Yep, I'd Email Ike ike@ikelite.com, I bet they would make you one as long as you want.

Hi Lambis,
I believe Subtronic do 4 metre cables, but I'm not sure on the connections (they make a variety)
May be worth dropping them a line as well

I am trying to control studio lights above water :-)

just watch those lights don't fall in the pool - or it will be a really short dive!!

Steve thanks
thats is the reason that the cable is 10 meters long and the lights will be triggerd trough a radiotrigger and other modifications that i am prepearing.

Did some stills stuff last winter for a video team that was shooting training videos for the Diver's Federation here. They had 1,5kW of movie-style hotlights at the surface, plus 1kW of surface supplied homemade hotlights underwater. The first time I jumped into that pool I was sure I was going to be electrocuted.
Did not need to bring my own flashes, though...
