Sync Cord interface for an OLY PT-018 and SeaLife SL960?

  1. Sync Cord interface for an OLY PT-018 and SeaLife SL960?

    Hello everyone,

     

    I have just recently upgraded from a Sealife manual camera to an OLY C750UZ with a PT-018 housing. Having initially bought a strobe from SeaLife (SL960), is there anyway which I can interface the PT-018 housing with the SL960 strobe? I'm looking at the possibility of getting a sync cord as the interface between the 2 but the problem is although I can no doubt connect the sync cord to the PT-018 housing, I'll have a problem with the sync cord's end to the strobe. Have anybody tried out connecting a sync cord to a SL960 strobe? :?:

     

    Although the SL960 works ok when I tried out topside with the PT-018(without the sync cord that is) but I've yet to tried this out UW without the sync cord. By the way, the SL960 is a slave unit and is a basic strobe. I'm thinking of fully utilizing the strobe as it'll be a waste to dump it aside considering that I've bought it recently.

     

    If anybody got any ideas :idea: on this(besides getting a new strobe that is!), appreciate if you can advise. Thank you!
