YS-90DX or YS-90 Auto for C-5060 & C-5050

2 posts
  1. Hello,

    I understand that the YS-90 Auto is the newer model and better designed to work with digital cameras. I was planning on getting one for my Oly C-5060 with PT-020 housing next month when an incredible deal came my way for a YS-90DX.

     

    I know that the YS-90X works with my camera (seller uses a 5050) as well and by looking at the specs on

    Sea & Sea's web site, they seem nearly identical. I can get about 40 flashes and about 200 degrees more K on the color temp, plus the F stops are different.

     

    Does anyone have the DX for their Oly or have experience with both strobes?

     

    This is a really good deal but I'm also afraid that I may be settling for something less appropriate for what I need, which I'm willing to do if it's not too big of a difference.

     

    Most of my uses are macro as our viz is So Cal doesn't lend to WA.

     

    thanks

  2. I use the ys90 DX with my olympus 3040Z.

    Iget great results.
