bvanant 153 Posted November 3, 2019 It works fine IF you have the right fiber optic cable. You need one of the multi-core versions Bill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

submatix 0 Posted December 2, 2019 hello , i just arrived in bali and make the first dive so : yes it works : i use 2 optic fiber one sea&sea and one divervision 613L: the 2 are working :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pavel Kolpakov 63 Posted December 2, 2019 (edited) 4 hours ago, Interceptor121 said: Pavel also sea and sea cable are 613 cores am I right? Sea&Sea fiber optical cables are multicore, but I don't know what core is inside and what is the transmission index. We can only see that outer diameter is different from 613-core Nauticam, so probably this is another cable. Edited December 2, 2019 by Pavel Kolpakov Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bvanant 153 Posted December 2, 2019 or you can make your own multi-core cables as well. Avoid the real cheap AliExpress version ($16). They claim 613 core but my microscope thinks otherwise. Bill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BillI make my own for remote triggers but for the camera I like something that is very strong on the plugsI have had two sea and sea cables not sure about number of cores for over 15 yearsSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bvanant 153 Posted December 3, 2019 If they are more than 5 years old they are single core fibers. As for ends, if you buy the Divervision ones, you can put any o-ring on them you want, the ones they come with are too tight for me. Bill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I also have a Nauticam bought last year. All of the work inconsistently with Sea and Sea DS-TTL II however I do not use TTL anyway :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
