we recently came across pygmy pipehorses in Anilao (Janao Bay) and i belive this is the same species you're discussing.

my friend pressed to hard and broke one of the pins.. now can't really fix it. damn!

hello wolf eel. do the pins go out of the bulkhead backwards (meaning to where the wire is) or forward (towards where it attaches to the housing)?

got it from bh photovideo last year... do you think they would still replace it?

hi thanks.. but i have an ikelite housing and not an olympus housing.. guess i have to settle with the ikelite domeport and converter lens of olympus *sigh*

I have a sync cord that connects the ikite ttl housing for the 8080 to a nikon sb105 strobe... somehow the connection to the housing port got busted and the strobe won't fire unless i press on it... any suggestions on how i could fix this? danny

Yes i checked that site but using that combination will only give it a focal length of 22 mm.

Thanks for the reply guys! Will do the test... I am using f8 (that's as far as the 8080 would go), iso 50 and shutter speed of 100 to 200 (depending on how far the subject is). observed that at super macro and macro mode the flash output is really intense even though i tried the flash compensation up to -1.0 danny

Hi there, I have no problems using TTL with my new DS125 for my Olympus 8080 connected with a sync cord to my Ikelite housing. However, I found my macro shots too bright (burnt!) whenever I use TTL when I've heard others use TTL for macro and have no problems. Can anyone help me solve this problem? Danny

Hello Gary, Thanks for those ideas... as I am new in the whole underwater digital photography world, I really don't know if there's a ring that could fit on the lens port of the ikelite housing for the olympus 8080 since there's no thread on the port. Will check your suggestions and pics later. Danny

hi Gary, Thanks for the tip.. however I don't know if that would fit the Ikelite 8080 housing unless I buy the dome port and wide angle conversion lens. Danny

Taken in Anilao, Batangas, Philippines... trying to upload the picture but can't... i never really succeeded in uploading pictures in this website... can anyone help me out? generally i see this wonderpuss or mimic octopus in anilao

Hi, Is there a way to get the 8080 converted or have an attachment to convert it to 15 mm? I checked the ikelite website (i have an ikelite housing) that makes it 22.4mm with the wide conversion lens and dome port. any suggestions? Danny

Either I don't know how or it's not possible to switch the camera to manual flash mode when you're using manual settings any suggestions how to do this?

HELP! I recently bought a DS-125 and connect this with a TTL sync cord to my Olympus8080 housing in the ikelite housing. I still want to use my nikonos SB105 strobe on slave mode but it doesn't fire in sync with the camera because of the DS125's preflash (I think)... any suggestions on how to rig this properly? used to connect the SB105 to the housing using the ikelite sync cord but had problems later on with the strobe not firing in sync.
