Sea & Sea Internal Optical YS Converter C2

A compact unit that converts the camera’s TTL signal to a light signal. The converter connects to the camera’s accessory shoe 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)
