I assembled my first serious underwater rig today, a Sony RX100V in a nauticam housing with dual YS-D2 strobes. I'm currently using fantsea fiber cables and the strobes in TTL sync mode. When I take a test shot to make sure the strobes are in sync, one strobe appears much brighter than the other. It seems that one strobe might be just slightly out of sync with the other. Any suggestions what might be the cause? Am I better off slaving one strobe to the other? Should I try nauticam cords? Any suggestions appreciated.

The second picture looks fine to me, not too much difference between them. Settings?

Try switching the strobes: if one of the strobes is acting up it probably doesn't matter whether it is is on the L or R side.
Then switch the cords: does the problem move with the cord?
You are trying to work out whether the problem moves with the strobe or with the cord.
