The TG6 is in a PT059 housing and using the Olympus UFL3 strobe. The camera is set to RC under Strobe and WB set to auto but the strobe only fires Intermittently. The strobe is on RC A. I am using Aperature mode.
0n shore the strobe fires every time but at depth it is intermittent. This hapens irrespective of the camera settings for F/Stop and EC level. The images are either completely black or just very underexposed. Histograms are stacked to the left only. I changed the sync cable and same thing hapens. I checked the cables and both are emmiting a signal from the camera flash. At depth the strobe does not fire all of the time. However on land it works every time?
If I switch both camera and strobe settings to Full and Manual then it fires every time.
At surface the LCD screen is bright and clear but at depth the lcd screen is very dark even though LIVE VIEW BOOST is set to on. I can't see the subject clearly.
Not sure if this is related but when trying ambient light shots and then trying to set the white balance level at depth I press the info button and when I press the shutter I get a message saying " WB levels are extreme. Continue? With the Yes/No options. This doesn't happen at the surface.
IF I take the yes then the scren becomes very bright and pink and photos are obviously overexposed with pink colour.
Can both these issues be a presure/depth related issue? I do not know if the issue is in the camera or the strobe.
Any ideas ?
