Dear Ikelite,

is there any way to connect and use 2 new Manta strobes on a 5Dmk2 Ike housing ?
(if TTL is lost, it's not a issue)

and what is the weight of one strobe ?

thank you

Laurent,

Not directly from the housing. The Mantas can be triggered remotely off a strobe that is hard-wired to the housing.

Weight of the Manta is 13.8 oz or 391 g.

and so, one DS51 as a trigger to one or 2 Mantas, can offer a sweet weight gain to the whole setup, vs. two DS160...
thanks Brett.
