I just received the s400, dc800 and the sea&sea ys-25dx strobe kit.
I will be taking it on a dive trip in a couple weeks. The only hassle with the strobe kit was cutting the velcro material that is supposed to cover the flash on the case. I'm concerned that there needs to be so much velcro stuck to the case that it will bother the internal strobe on shallow snorkeling dives where the strobe isn't necessary, or where you want to do macro using only the internal flash. I'm going to test it out in a pool in the next few days.
The case seems great and works all the controls easily.
With the strobe attached, it is still a very small package to take diving and much better than my Ikelite Aquashot-35 which I was using before.
I dove the flower gardens last summer with the AQ-35 and due to me aiming the strobe incorrectly, not many of my pictures came out. This was when I decided to go digital so I could see my mistake right away and correct them before I get home and find out I didn't get many shots.
