Strobes for S2/Ike Housing

I am trying to develop my wish list for a Fuji S2 and Ikelite housing rig. What would be an ideal setup that would allow TTL functions and provide a great combo for wide angle and macro shots. I am considering the 18-35mm lens and perhaps a 60mm fixed lens. Let me know what you folks like.

Thanks so much!

If money were no object,

I would recommend the Nikkor 12-24DX lens for wideangle

and

The Nikkor 70-180 Macro zoom for Macro work.

You could "do everything" with those two lenses.

Please note that the 12-24 is not available but should be shipping on the 19th of April.

Strobe recommendations would be much the same as for any camera. If you want to shoot wide, get one wide powerful strobe or 2 mid-sized strobes. Any TTL strobe will work in TTL with the S2pro.

James, do you know something I don't about the 70-180 as far as port options available for the S2? That is one sweet lens as Craig can varify.

The lens is 7 1/4 inches when fully extended. It needs a zoom clamp/gear and a focus gear to do manual focus. The AF on a lens that long doesn't really work.

So does Ike make a port to accomodate this lens?

If you send them the lens, Brett says he will make a port for it. I haven't sent them the lens yet.

Cheers

James
