Do I need AV Controllers

7 posts
  1. Hi

     

    I have recently upgraded my ikelite strobes from ds125 and ds50 to ds160 and ds51 and I have a couple of AV controllers left over from my old strobes. Is it worth using these with the new strobes or is it irrelevant as the strobes have built in adjustable power?

     

    Thanks for any help :)

    Cheers

  2. Are you using an Ikelite housing with built in TTL circuitry? Or another brand of housing?

  3. Yes Ikelite housing with full TTL.

    Cheers

  4. Sorry i should add the housing is for a canon eos 500d :)

  5. I don't think there would be any need for the AV controllers with the new strobes and an Ikelite housing.

  6. They are still useful for triggering ikelite slave strobes. If you still have your ds125 you may want to pick up a fiber optic snoot.

  7. If you would want to part with the ev controller I would be interested
