What is the strobe connection on this housing? What kind of strobes can be used?
Thanks in advance.

The pics was taken in Italy, at dive spot called "Banco di Santa Croce" between Naples and Sorrento.
The housing allows use of a syncro connection (Olympus style with TTL or Nikonos, no TTL) or the usage of the internal strobe.
I use the internal one and 2xINON S2000 strobes via fiber optic.

hello, nice photos, congratulations.
I'm new in this forum and wrote a question yesterday on precisely this set, LX3 + waterproof 10bar, because I'm very inclined to purchase it. My question is if you have vigneting problems when you employ wide-angle lenses or if you apply a little zoom to correct it?
Best regards

Hi Roberto, with this lens I get no vignetting, it's built custom for this housing.
I've tryied also INON UWL-100M67 but with slight vignetting, and Dyron WA20M67 with no vignetting but with more narrow angle of coverage.
This pic is made with the WA20M67:

HI Pietro,
thanks four your information.
I always heard that the INON lenses have better quality than the others. In practice you see any difference betwen both?
For me, your pics look great.
Thanks again
Best regards

Thanks, I talked to Dyron briefly at DEMA, but it looks liek I shall have to see if I can get some these lenses into stock.
I am now a 10Bar dealer in the US, and will be stocking the housing. I have an order in next week, so if you want to get one let me know.
