Have some Ikelite products from late eighties that I am hoping will still have some useful life.
Ikelite Housing for Pentax SF1 SLR Film camera
IkelIte Substrobe 150 TTL
Ikelite TTL cord
Various trays, brackets and Arms
Various flat ports and dome ports
I have recently started diving again and was wondering if I can refurbish the ikelite Housing for a Nikon D40. Was hoping only new controls, TTL socket and mounting plate would be required.
The Substrobe 150 is actually in good working condition. I fired it up the other day and all functions seem to be working fine. Have not yet tested it underwater. The two rechargeable batteries still hold a charge and I hope after a few cycles they will be actually serviceable. In anycase I can repack the batteries. I was juts wondering if the strobe will work TTL with digital SLRs.
Does anyone have any experience adapting an existing Ikelite housing to another camera model?
Any advise I can get with regards to what is the best way to breaty some life into any of the items I have above would be much appreciated.
