  2. Hi Gadi,

     

    Thanks for the post, your photos give a better impression of the housing then the ones on the Sea and Sea website.

     

    What converter is that you are using?

     

    Are you using any domeport yet? I am interested in the Optical Dome Port, wanna use it with 10.5 mm and 12-24 mm. Does anybody know if this one port is good for both lenses?

    Thanks,

    I got the Ikelite TTL connected to both DS125 strobes, and this was my first dive with the housing and strobes connected to the TTL, I can not tell you that i am happy with the results, not yet. but i am not sure that i conected the setup correct, ill need to do more testing before i know that it works well.

     

    I use the Big Dome port 8' with two lens:

    the Nikon 12-24mm with ext ring,

    the Tokina 10-17 without the ext ring.

     

    Thanks

  4. Hi, I have almost the same rig, but with my "old" Sea&sea YS90 strobes.

    Where did you get the mount/arm for the focus light? I have the same light, but no mount.

    From under water photo-tech in NH, you can see their adds on the right side of this site :-)

    wasn't too expensive.

    UPDATE

    after bad results from the pictures yesterday (first dive), i took the time tonight to go over the settings of the Camera and the TTL and found the problem, i did an extensive test and the Ikelite TTL connect to the Sea&Sea D300 with two DS-125 Strobes work flawlessly.... tested with the Nikon 105 VR, 12-24 and Tokina 10-17. all of them tested successfully.

     

    I wonder if there is anyone else that try to work with the above setup? what was your experiences? Did TTL works for you?

     

    Thanks
