dmoss 0 Posted May 25, 2004 I just upgraded to an Ikelite housed Oly 5060 with the DS125 strobe. I used a lesser quality digital outfit for 2 years and decided I wanted better pictures. My question.....when shooting toward the surface on sunny days...should I switch the strobe to full power instead of TTL ? Also, what would the recommended camera settings be as far as shutter speed and F-stop for this type of shot ? I'm hoping I can reduce the learning curve a little by getting some good advise up front. Thanks much for your help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Starbuck 0 Posted May 25, 2004 hello - I would check www.splashdowndivers.com for some basic settings to get you started.. If you are shooting into the sun you will probably need a fast shutter speed 1/2000 and f8 to get a decent photo. I have few pictures posted on the Sunball contest that you can check settings and composition. No strobe. My 5050 is not equipped with TTL. You probably have the new circuitry to handle this with your ds125.. Thanks IKE! I think we would all like to see some of your photos taken with TTL and the 5060! M.
