Hallo, I need an advice, can I control external strobe Sea & Sea YS-90 TTL Duo with optical (fiber) cable in TTL mode? Or, if I'll use this optical cable, will I have only manual control of strobe?
Thanks, nice weekend! :]

Hi spachal,
I use a Nexus housed Nikon D70S and I have fired both YS90 TTL Duo and YS120 TTL Duo with fibre optics direct from camera/housing.
Both strobes work in TTL mode although I found the manual settings to be more reliable than the TTL settings. As I said, the TTL setting
works, but sometimes throws in a shocker for no apparent reason. These are my findings only. . . . in other words, IMHO.
Bruce.

Hallo Bruce, thaks for your reply :]. Just to be sure, you have connected strobes with optial cable not with camera body, but with outside housing and both strobes are working in TTL mode? Thats a great news! :]
Please, one more question, you are using internal camera flash in TTL mode, or you have disabled pre-flash function?
Thanks, Jan
