A compact unit that converts the camera's TTL signal to a light signal. The converter can be mounted on the camera's accessory shoe and can be connected to (a) SEA&SEA strobe(s) with Fiber-Optic Cable(s) (*). TTL and manual modes can be switched by pushing the mode switch on the housing.

Advantages of using the Optical YS Converter and not using the camera's built-in flash:

  • Risk of water-ingress and flooding via the strobe bulkhead is eliminated.
  • The camera's battery will last longer.
  • External strobes will fire in accordance with their quickest recycle time.
  • No inner reflections from camera's built-in flash.
  • Compared with slave TTL, the Optical YS Converter achieves far greater accuracy in TTL exposure/output.
  • Optical YS Converter is compatible with SLR cameras that do not have a built-in flash.

Controls:

  • Power ON/Power OFF/TTL mode (indicated by blue lamp)/Manual mode (indicated by green lamp)
  • Remaining battery level is indicated by flashing LED lamp.
