Yeah I have a manual controller to adjust the power output. It goes F, .5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 4.5. so Is "F" full power and is .5 the lowest? I was using .5 which i assumed was the lowest setting with ISO200 1/180 and F22 and was still getting a bit of an overexposed image but i think i can sort this out. it just doesnt seem that i'm gonna have much freedom choosing narrower depth of field options.

can anything be done to get it to work with D-TTL?

yeah i said ds150 strobe i meant ds-50 of course

Hello i have a 5503.5 port for sale. has dome shade. was thinking $90 plus cost of shipping. Located in Ireland. PM me. cheers

thanks alot guys. this has been very helpful. its kind of a shame the camera cant synch with faster shutter speeds. i thought i was using my strobes' lowest power setting and it was still overexposed so i guess i'll have to master all the settings in manual including ISO to achieve the exposure i want. I got my setup second hand so i didnt get a manual with my strobe. can anyone quickly explain the power settings and what the numbers really mean or how they relate?

Hello All. I am a Novice underwater photographer and recently got a macro setup. I have a nikon d100, a nikon 60mm ikelite housing and ikleite ds150 substrobe. In my photos with shutter speeds upward from 250 or so I am getting black on the upper half of the image from where the shutter is starting to close. the bottom half will be a distinguishable image illuminated by the strobe. the faster shutter speed i use the larger the black area will obvioulsy be. In order to produce and acceptable image i have to use a very small aperture to compensate. This is not ideal. Its almost like my strobe is a fraction too slow, but it shows no signs of malfunctioning and fires seemingly normally when the shutter is released. The strobe connectors seem to be fine, and no corrosion etc. I have taken my system out with 2 separate d100 bodies. so it seems very unlikely that the problem lies there. Any suggestions? cheers, Kevin Stephens

Item no longer for sale. cheers.

Price Drop to $ 1100 !
