I hear conflicting opinions regarding the best strobe for my housed olympus 8000. Inon 2000, Sea and Sea YS-01 or the Ikelite DS51. Does anyone have any experience with these brands/models? Any opinions? Thanks to all for your feedback.
 
When I was looking for a strobe for our 8000 I narrowed it down to a Sea&Sea 110a or an Inon S2000 or D2000. I ended up with a Inon D2000 only because I found a price I couldn't pass on.
I never considered a DS51 for some reason. Maybe features or cost, I don't recall.

What I wanted was a wide beam angle for when I do WA shots, a G# that would have plenty of power and a strobe that would mimic my cameras flash.
I really don't think you can go wrong with either an Inon or the 110a.
