Need Help with Strobe Flsh Sensor and a Casio Camera

3 posts
  1. I bought a little Casio Exhilim (sp) camera with the Casio case and tried my Ikelite strobe on it last year and had problems with it firing. The flash lies flat on the inside of the case so there is no room to place a sticker to reflect the camera flash to the sensor. Does anyone have any suggestions on triggering the strobe? Also I have the sensitivity on high, and everything works above water and above water. Thanks for the help

  2. Hi Chad and welcome to Wetpixel.

     

    First off - which Iklite flash were you using?

     

    Second off, have you tried an externally mounted flash reflector? Just something to bounce the light up to the Ikelite sensor? A piece of aluminum glued onto the outside of the case would do the trick.

     

    Cheers

  3. James thanks for the response.... The Strobe is an Ikelite D50...... Can you be more specific on how to arrange this reflector, and if anyone has a picture of one rigged up I would love to see it.
