INON z-22 and D70 in Subal housing

  1. INON z-22 and D70 in Subal housing

    So now I've been in the water with the Z-22 and the D70 in the N10(f100) housingfrom Subal.

     

    The Z-22 is to strong to use with the D70, so we put a 3 step ND filter in front of the 4 flash tubes. This gives F22 on the normal working distances with the flash set to 1/2 power. This gives us +/- one step with the 3 step power switch in the strobe.

     

    As we are shooting on 1/2 power the strobe recycles really fast so you can more or less shoot continues for 2-3 frames.

     

    Great stuff :)

     

    Next step is to build a new back for the housing :shock: to see the display. But me comming from shooting film you can actually do without it as the camera gives +/- 2 steps exposure latitude.

     

    And yes the search lights works fine, also from our special tricks department :) , post describing this is to follow.

  2. How about some sample shots?

     

    Your underwater gallery is excellent!

  3. Well flatter will get you anywhere :)

     

    Just tested things out in a small lake near my house. Nothing I'm proud of as a photo but the rig work.

     

    Just shot some crayfish.

     

    So here we go........ You will se the typical 4 flach tubes of the Z-22 in the eye.

     

    The fun thing with the D70 images are that the magazine I'm writing for has approved the quality for covershots from som WA test images with the 10,5 mm FE lens. So quality wise were fine.
