Strobes using the Nikonos TTL flash protocol do not operate correctly
with D/iTTL and eTTL cameras, but most housing manufacturers
bring all of the DSLR hot-shoe connections out to the Nikonos
socket anyway. This is done so that you can use a camera-dedicated
strobe in an underwater housing, but unfortunately, most strobes
designed for land use have inadequate output and coverage for
general (i.e. wide-angle) underwater photography. Users of these
cameras must therefore use manual flash if they want to use conventional
underwater strobes (fortunately not difficult if the camera provides
a histogram display), and must somehow disconnect some of the
wires leading from the hot shoe to the strobe. The Ikelite cables
listed above leave out the connections which cause problems,
allowing any Ikelite Substrobe to be used in manual mode. Strobes
which offer variable power settings are recommended. The DS-50/51,
DS-125/160 and DS-200 strobes can be used with the Ikelite EV controller to provide 10 output
settings at 1/2-stop increments. |
 |
To use a normal Ikelite - Nikonos sync cord, or other Nikonos compatible strobe with the Nikonos
socket on a DSLR housing; you can disconnect the hot-shoe contacts
shown in the illustrations (left and right) or cover the contacts
with insulating tape. Always leave provision to put the connections
back as standard: you may later wish to upgrade to iTTL or eTTL
compatible UW flash equipment. |
 |
There are compatibility
issues when using these cables with non-Ikelite DSLR housings
(see above).(However, #4104.6,
4104.62 are the correct cables to use with a Hugyfot housing
fitted with a Heinrich-Weikampf TTL adapter). |

Connector Spares
Notes: 1) Flexible vinyl push-on
cable caps provided with earlier Ikelite cables (not current
ones) should be discarded. Leaching of plasticiser from the cap
to the O-ring may reduce the service life of the O-ring. Rigid
caps and current Delrin caps shown below are free from this problem.
2) Ikelite O-rings are nitrile-butadiene rubber (NBR). The correct
lubricant is silicone
grease. |

The O-ring 0118 has a smaller cross-section diameter than the
P9 O-ring used on Japanese conectors (the O-ring groove diameter
of Ikelite plugs is 9.35mm, whereas Sea & Sea plugs have
an O-ring groove diameter of 9.1mm). Hence the Ikelite O-ring
should only be used on Ikelite connectors. Using a Japanese O-ring
on an Ikelite connector will make the plug stiff to insert. |

OEM / service parts does not include technical
support. Fitting of electrical connectors requires considerable
soldering skill. All newly made waterproof assemblies require
pressure testing before use. Cameras Underwater accepts no liability
